Description

Formerly known as Gapers Block crits, bring yourself on down to race this classic four night series. Geared towards giving newer racers a lot of experience in consecutive nights, you don't want to miss out! Held in lovely Calumet Park, this closed loop is comprised of fairly wide turns with a little jog along the lake side stretch, guaranteed to keep things interesting. Pre-reg here: https://www.bikereg.com/skywayclassic


Best racing deal in town! Prizes and local fame for all category winners.

Note: RSVP'n to this event does NOT get you on the start roster. Register online (link above) or day-of, if space allows. 

Also note: the awesome ladies of CWEC are planning a recon ride down prior to. Check their website for more dets: http://www.chicagowomenselite.com/#/development/

Every night, races go from about 5:45-8pm.

Directions: Get your warm-up by riding down!  Follow the Bike Route signs from the Lake Front Path.  Or, if you must take a car... If you follow online directions you'll get off the I-90 skyway at 92nd, the first exit after/before the toll, and pay $4 each way every day.  Instead, we recommend: exit the Dan Ryan I-94 at 63rd (exit 58B), go east on 63rd, south on King, and take South Chicago Ave.  Left on 95th which leads into the park.  Stay right at the T with Crilly. OR better yet, take Lake Shore Drive and follow along the new 2 mile extension to Ewing which leads straight to the park! You can park along Crilly before the Ave G stop sign.

Racing will be the loop following S Ave G south, left turn onto E 100th Dr, continuing left onto Crilly Dr, then left back to Ave G.
