This weekend features a duo of Cups: Capital Cup on Saturday and Boulevard Cup on Sunday. Both part of the Series60CX. Here’s a note from the Topeka folks:
The 3rd Annual Capital Cup Cyclocross Race
Presented by the Sunflower State Games
October 17th ,2009
October 6, 2009. It’s time once again for the 3rd Annual Capital Cup. As in years previous it will be held at the beautiful Hummer Sports Park in Topeka, KS. This is round #2 of the Series60CX. Back again this year are ”The Keyhole”, “The Spoke” wheel pit, “The Kink”, lots of power sucking Zoysia grass and everyone’s favorite “The Mound of Mercy!” New for this year is the “Tunnel of Trees on the North end of the course. As always there are lots of wide, grassy straights to put the power down and several technical sections to test a rider’s skill. This year’s edition will feature first lap Primes for Chamois Butt’r swag, and over $1000 in cash and prizes on offer. All this to be covered by nationally renowned race announcer John Lefler with his silky smooth voice and jammin’ tunes on the PA! Our great sponsors also include The Sunflower State Games, LocalCycling.com, Monster Energy Drink, CoreFirst Bank and Trust, Waste Management, Wendy’s, Capp’s Bike Shop, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Educational Credit Union and St. Francis Health Center. So be sure and head to Topeka on October 17th for a great fall tradition of cyclocross racing! See you there on the 17th!
