2015 PSI-clocross For Life Preview
November 5, 2015
- #PSIcx More info here.
- Preliminary staging will be here before Sunday.
- PSI-clocross For Life hosted by Rob Curtis and the crew from PSIMET at Emricson Park in Woodstock, IL.
- Please pay attention when you are racing and entering the park in your car. There are 4 road crossings on the course and while there will be course marshals at each crossing, please look both ways before crossing. Better safe than sorry.
- Speaking of cars, no parking on the grass – anywhere. There is plenty of parking available throughout Emricson Park, please use it or you will be ticketed. This includes team vehicles intending on dropping off team tent and compound equipment.
- Speaking of tent compounds – please try to keep the team tents in the areas near start/finish and Heckle Hill.
- The Pizza food truck many of us have seen at events like Caldwell Woods will be there around 10:30. There are also plenty of places to eat in downtown Woodstock on the square and we encourage all hungry racers to spend their money there.
- The weather looks great if a little chilly. Please dress appropriately for both before, during, and after your race(s).
- No inside bathrooms or the warming hut again this year. All Porta-potties near the Start/Finish.
- Rt 47 through Huntley is not under construction this year but still subject to traffic, so please plan your travel times accordingly. Your best bet directions are to exit I90 on Route 47 into the town of Woodstock. A left on Lake Ave and another left on South St should lead you right to Emricson Park (on your right).
- Now that the official sunset time is literally minutes after the end of the Cat 4/5 race, PSIMET and the South Chicago Wheelmen would appreciate any help tearing down the course after the Cat 4/5 race.
- While Rob Curtis LOVES the festivities on Heckle Hill, he asks that if you bring it in you pack it out… or at least drop it in one of the trash cans. It is often tough to see trash on the ground after the last race due to sunset.
- The SRAM NRS equipment pits are a fair distance away from the start/finish area, so please plan your time accordingly.
- The course: New direction, with the course running anti-clockwise. Hills, and some bumpy fields, and a high-speed trip through the woods, and hills.
