SUMMARY:[Canceled!] WBR Single Bong 20 km TT
DESCRIPTION:The Bong Single 20 km TT (Time Trial)\, sponsored by Wisconsin Bicycle Racing (WBR) and hosted by the Wisconsin-Illinois Cycling Association (WIIL Cycle)\, is a standout solo race in Kenosha County’s Brighton Township. This American Bike Racing (ABR)-sanctioned event launches at 9:00 AM CDT near Brighton Elementary School\, with riders starting every 60 seconds as part of the Mid America Time Trial Series (MATTS). The 20-kilometer (12.4-mile) course welcomes all levels – juniors\, masters\, and open categories – offering a mostly flat\, with some rolling terrain\, fast challenge perfect for time trialists and newcomers alike. WBR\, a Kenosha-area grassroots powerhouse\, ensures a top-notch experience with medals for the top 5 per category and $30 cash prizes for the fastest overall\, women\, and juniors. Register at wiilcycle.org/register for $30 (adults) or $15 (juniors 18 & under)—on-site registration adds $10\, available from 6:30 AM. After the finish\, enjoy post-race snacks and swap stories at the school\, a true Wisconsin cycling event highlight. \nThe Bong Single 20 km TT course starts near Brighton Elementary\, just north of the Richard Bong State Recreation Area\, and follows a single loop along rural roads. Smooth asphalt winds past the Bong area’s 4\,515 acres of prairie\, offering open vistas and minimal turns for sustained 25-30 mph efforts. Open to traffic\, safety is key – ride right\, use a rear red blinker (highly recommended)\, and follow marshals at crossings. Past Strava data from Bong TTs shows top times of 25-28 minutes – pure speed rules here. \nSingle Bong 20 km TT Weather\nLate May/Early June weather in Kenosha County typically brings mild conditions\, with morning temperatures ranging from 65-75°F – comfortable for an 9:00 AM start. Humidity averages 60-70%\, adding a slight stickiness\, so hydration remains essential – bring a bottle or two.

SUMMARY:[Canceled!] WBR Double Bong 20/40 km TT
DESCRIPTION:The Double Bong 20/40 km TT (Time Trial)\, sponsored by Wisconsin Bicycle Racing (WBR) and hosted by the Wisconsin-Illinois Cycling Association (WIIL Cycle)\, is a premier Midwest cycling event that doubles down on speed and endurance. This American Bicycle Racing (ABR)-sanctioned race unfolds in Kenosha County’s Brighton Township at the Richard Bong State Recreation Area\, starting at 8:00 AM CDT with riders launching every 30 seconds. Part of the Mid America Time Trial Series (MATTS)\, this 40-kilometer (24.8-mile) solo challenge welcomes all levels—juniors\, masters\, and open categories—offering a flat\, fast course perfect for time trialists and road racers alike. WBR\, a Kenosha-area grassroots force\, brings passion and precision\, with medals for the top 5 per category and $30 cash prizes for the fastest overall\, women\, and juniors. Register online at wiilcycle.org/register for $30 (adults) or $15 (juniors 18 & under)- on-site registration adds $10\, opening at 6:30 AM. \nThe course is a double-loop gem\, starting near the Bong Recreation Area’s Special Use Zone parking lot off County Hwy JB. Riders tackle two identical 20k circuits\, heading west on quiet rural roads—likely JB and 312th Ave – before looping back via straightaways like WI-142. It’s pancake-flat (elevation <50 ft total)\, with smooth asphalt and minimal turns\, built for 25-30 mph efforts over 24.8 miles. The recreation area’s 4\,515 acres feature prairie vistas and distant tree lines\, offering a distraction-free focus on speed. Open to traffic\, safety rules apply—ride right\, use a rear red blinker (highly recommended)\, and follow marshals at key points. Strava data from past Double Bong TTs shows top riders clocking 45-50 minutes – pure power reigns here. Post-race\, enjoy snacks and swap tales at the lot\, soaking in WIIL Cycle’s community vibe. \nDouble Bong 20/40 km TT Weather\nLate summer weather at Bong brings warm conditions\, with temperatures typically ranging from 75-85°F by morning\, often climbing to the low 80s. Humidity hovers at 70-80%\, making it a sweaty affair – hydration is non-negotiable\, so pack two bottles. Winds blow steady at 10-15 mph\, often from the south or southwest\, giving a push on one leg but a grind on the return-pace smartly.
