2023 Campton CX Preview
October 26, 2023
- The Guaranteed Rate Cycling team host us again at Campton CX for the series’ second hilliest race.
- Anderson Park in Campton Township (5N180 Brown Rd, Campton Hills, IL 60175). Need directions? From I-90: Randall Road South, to Rt. 64 West, past LaFox Road, turn right onto Brown Road and park is on your left. There are other Anderson Parks in the Chicagoland area, so please go to the correct one. The map on BikeReg is correct.
- Pre-reg closes Friday night on BikeReg .
- Preliminary staging will be posted here on Saturday. Make sure you double check your preliminary staging on Saturday, not Sunday.
- Dave’s SLO Food will be serving up some fantastic BBQ.
- Sorry, but NO alcoholic beverages are allowed in the park.
- Campton is our Halloween race. Wear a costume, or not… keep it fun, maybe a little weird! There may be a costume contest. We can’t wait to see what you all come up with this year.
- Please do NOT warm up on/around the soccer fields to the East of registration. The village has asked us to keep off the areas visible when you pull into the park. If you carefully ride North on Brown Rd for about 200 meters you can hop onto the Great Western trail, which is a great place to warm up. Thank you.
- It’s warm right now, but temps will be dropping quickly and the forecast is for a chance of rain all day. Please plan your clothing accordingly.
- There is plenty of parking on site. Please do not ride or drive on the grass surrounding the course.
Will there be a food truck?
Yes! Dave’s SLO Food will be serving up some fantastic BBQ
Unfortunately a 24 inch electric blue Vitus bike went missing off the Half Acre rack at this race. If you see it please call or text 773-526-0904. I have a very devastated 11 year old on my hands. Really hoping this was just a mistake!
FOUND!!! Thanks, community.
