This weekend’s races: April 18-19
2009
The spring race schedule is a funny thing in Chicago: We get so worked up for Hillsboro-Roubaix, but then it’s almost a month before there’s another local race.
There’s nothing local this weekend, but there are options within driving distance. Madison hosts two days of the Greg Bednorski Memorial Criterium, and the Indiana season kicks off with the Ceraland Classic on Saturday and the Mooresville Criterium on Sunday. Both of those are a bit of a trek, but if you go, don’t forget the time change. (At every Indiana race there will be at least one Chicagoan who shows up 10 minutes before his start because he forgot about the time zone. Don’t let it be you!)
Saturday Greg Bednorski Memorial No. 1 Madison, Wis. USCF criterium Distance from Chicago: 2.5 hours
Ceraland Classic Columbis, Ind. ABR criterium Distance from Chicago: 4 hours
Sunday Greg Bednorski Memorial No. 2 Madison, Wis. USCF criterium Distance from Chicago: 2.5 hours
Moorseville Criterium Moorseville, Ind. ABR criterium Distance from Chicago: 3.5 hours

FYI: there is some collegiate racing this weekend in WI also. Greenbush on Sat (http://www.mwccc.org/sp09/flyers/pdf/sp09_uww.pdf) and at Madison’s Capitol on Suday. I wonder if it will be the same course as the Dairland Tour Greenbush race? It should be awesome!
