WCA - Wisconsin Cycling Association

Please take the 2011 WCA CX survey (assuming you race cross).

We will use the info gained from the survey to try to help make cross in Wisconsin even better in 2012. Please remember, while we do have some control over what happens in the WCA events, we don’t really have much control over what goes on at USGP Sun Prairie, Nationals etc. (even though they are in WI) Thanks.

The survey is open here, and will close in 2 weeks on Feb 3 at midnight. You don’t have to answer all of the questions either; some of them will only apply to a small subset of racers, so you can just skip them.

Any rider who finished in the top three of the WCA Crank Daddy's Cyclocross series should email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to arrange pick up for the amazing trophies.

Milwaukee area riders who finished in the top three and didn't pick up their trophies yet should email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Those riders can pick up their trophies at Crank Daddy's on Farwell Avenue in Milwaukee on Tuesday, Jan. 24.

The 21st Annual Brazen Dropouts (presented by Machinery Row Bicycles) Bike Swap is taking place Saturday, January 14th in the Exhibition Hall of the Alliant Energy Center - Madison, WI (right off of the Beltline at John Nolan Dr.). There are always treasures to find - both old and new, and many at incredible savings. This year there will also be seminars offered by Speed Cycling. Come to one of the "granddaddys" of bike swaps with well over 100 vendors and the always popular Bike Corral ($10/bike for those selling).

Doors open at 9am for customers and the event will run through 3:30pm. Entry is $7.00 (parking for cars is $6). For more information click on the banner ad to your right.
