SUMMARY:MATTS Garden Prairie Illinois Championship 20-30k TT
DESCRIPTION:Race Flyer \nRoute \nThe Illinois TT Championship 20-30k\, sponsored by American Bicycle Racing (ABR) and hosted by the Wisconsin-Illinois Cycling Association (WIIL Cycle)\, is a premier solo race in Garden Prairie\, IL\, starting at the SESI High Road Therapeutic School parking lot (7133 Garden Prairie Rd\, Garden Prairie\, IL 61038). This ABR-sanctioned event\, a crown jewel of the Mid America Time Trial Series (MATTS)\, begins at 9:01 AM CDT\, with riders launching every minute to compete for state titles. Offering 20 km (12.4 miles) for juniors and masters 70+ or 30 km (18.6 miles) for others\, this flat-to-rolling course draws top talent across all levels—juniors\, masters\, and open categories. ABR\, dedicated to promoting cycling (ambikerace.com)\, awards Illinois Championship jerseys to category winners\, plus cash prizes ($40 for fastest overall\, $30 for second\, $20 for third\, across men\, women\, and juniors). Register at wiilcycle.org/register for $35 (adults) or $20 (juniors)—on-site adds $10\, opening at 7:30 AM. Post-race\, celebrate with awards and snacks\, a standout among Illinois cycling events. \nThe course is a fast out-and-back\, starting just south of US-20 on Garden Prairie Rd. Riders head south\, navigating a relatively flat route with a few rollers (elevation ~100-150 ft total)\, hitting a 10 km (20k) or 15 km (30k) turnaround before racing back. Smooth pavement winds through Boone County’s rural farmland\, ideal for 25-30 mph efforts\, though open fields amplify wind exposure. Roads are open to traffic—ride right\, use a rear red blinker (highly recommended)\, and heed marshals; warm-ups are restricted to north of US-20 for safety. Past Garden Prairie TTs show top 30k times around 40-45 minutes—bring your speed to claim an Illinois TT title. \nIllinois TT Championship 20-30k Weather\nMid-June weather in Garden Prairie offers warm\, pleasant conditions\, with morning temperatures ranging from 65-75°F at the 9:01 AM start—comfortable yet warming quickly. Humidity averages 65-75%\, adding a slight stickiness—bring a bottle or two for hydration. Winds blow at 8-12 mph\, often from the south or southeast\, providing a tailwind one way and headwind the other—pace strategically. There’s a 25-35% chance of light showers\, though mid-June mornings are typically dry—check forecasts closer to race day for gear tweaks. \nTravel Directions\n\nFrom Milwaukee\, WI (70 miles southwest): Take I-94 W south ~40 miles to I-43 S\, exit at WI-120 S (Exit 36)\, go south 15 miles to US-20 W\, turn right\, follow 12 miles to Garden Prairie Rd\, turn right to 7133 Garden Prairie Rd (1.25-1.5 hr drive).\nFrom Madison\, WI (90 miles southeast): Drive east on I-90 E ~70 miles\, exit at IL-23 S (Exit 36)\, go south 10 miles to US-20 E\, turn left\, follow 8 miles to Garden Prairie Rd\, turn left to 7133 Garden Prairie Rd (1.5-1.75 hr drive).\nFrom Chicago\, IL (60 miles northwest): Take I-90 W ~50 miles\, exit at Genoa Rd (Exit 25)\, go north 5 miles to US-20 W\, turn right\, follow 5 miles to Garden Prairie Rd\, turn right to 7133 Garden Prairie Rd (1-1.25 hr drive).\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:MATTS Bryce Master 19k TT
DESCRIPTION:Race Flyer \nCourse Map \nThe Bryce Master 19k TT (Time Trial)\, sponsored by WCW and hosted by the Wisconsin-Illinois Cycling Association (WIIL Cycle)\, is a fast-paced solo race in Harvard\, IL\, at Milky Way Park (300 Lawrence Rd\, Harvard\, IL 60033). This American Bike Racing (ABR)-sanctioned event starts at 8:30 AM CDT\, with riders launching every minute as part of the Mid America Time Trial Series (MATTS). The 19-kilometer (11.8-mile) course welcomes all levels—juniors\, masters\, and open categories – offering a flat\, open challenge ideal for speed enthusiasts.  WCW brings grassroots passion with medals for the top 5 per category and cash prizes ($30 for fastest overall\, $25 for second\, $20 for third\, plus women’s and juniors’ awards). Register at wiilcycle.org/register for $30 (adults) or $15 (juniors 18 & under) – on-site adds $10\, opening at 7:00 AM. \nThe course is a swift out-and-back\, starting at Milky Way Park’s lot off Lawrence Road. Riders head southwest on Flat Iron Road (road changes its name in Boone County to Angling Road) reaching a 9.7 km turnaround at Mill Road before racing back. It’s nearly flat (<75 ft elevation)\, with smooth pavement cutting through McHenry and Boone Counties’ farmland and prairie\, great for 15 to 30+mph efforts. Open fields offer little wind protection\, but the simplicity keeps focus on power. Open to traffic\, safety is critical – ride right\, use a rear red blinker (highly recommended)\, and follow course marshals. Past results (e.g.\, 2025’s Bryce Master TT) showed a top time of 27:01 – speed rules this Illinois TT. \nBryce Master 19k TT Weather\nLate July/Early August weather in Harvard brings warm\, humid conditions\, with morning temperatures ranging from 70-80°F at the 8:30 AM start – expect a balmy kickoff. Humidity averages 75-85%\, making it sticky and sweat-heavy – bring two bottles for hydration. Winds blow steady at 10-15 mph\, often from the south or southwest\, offering a tailwind one way and a headwind the other—pace with care. There’s a 30-40% chance of scattered showers or thunderstorms\, though early mornings tend to stay dry – check forecasts closer to race day to adjust gear. \nTravel Directions\n\nFrom Milwaukee\, WI (60 miles southwest): Take I-94 W south ~40 miles to I-43 S\, exit at WI-120 S (Exit 36)\, go south 10 miles to IL-173 W\, turn right\, follow 8 miles to Lawrence Rd\, then right to 300 Lawrence Rd (1-1.25 hr drive).\nFrom Kenosha\, WI (35 miles west): Head west on WI-50 W for ~20 miles\, merge onto IL-173 W via US-12\, continue 12 miles\, turn right onto Lawrence Rd to 300 Lawrence Rd (45-55 min drive).\nFrom Madison\, WI (80 miles southeast): Drive east on I-90 E for ~60 miles\, exit at IL-23 S (Exit 36)\, go south 15 miles to IL-173 E\, turn left\, follow 3 miles\, then left onto Lawrence Rd to 300 Lawrence Rd (1.5-1.75 hr drive).\nFrom Chicago\, IL (65 miles northwest): Take I-90 W north ~55 miles\, exit at IL-173 W (Exit 8)\, head west 8 miles\, turn right onto Lawrence Rd to 300 Lawrence Rd (1-1.5 hr drive).\n\nRegister
