• We will be at Big Marsh in the Chicago Park District. REPEAT: The race is at BIG MARSH on Sunday. 
• Pre-registration is open on BikeReg until tomorrow (Friday) night at midnight.
• Staging: For the 2nd race in the series the front row of each category will be staged by series points, while everyone else is staged by CrossResults.com points. See full staging protocols over on the Rules/FAQ page.
• Preliminary staging will be posted here on Saturday. Here’s your annual reminder that sometimes the link between BikeReg and CrossResults is not correct, especially if you forget your USAC license number, so please, please check your staging on Saturday and not Sunday on the start line. We will NOT be able to adjust incorrect CrossResults points on Sunday.
• Directions: Set your GPS to 11559 S Stony Island Ave, Chicago, IL 60617.
• Parking: (Obviously but…) DO NOT PARK on the handicap parking slots. There will be a few more reserved spaces, please do not cross. If the parking lot is full, the street has plenty of space to park. You can drop off equipment, tents, etc. at the roundabout. Thanks!
• The Chicago Marathon was last week, so no need to worry about it unless you’re Marty McFly.
• Food: There will be a food truck (That’s a Burger) and they will have vegetarian and vegan options available!.
• If you’ve been riding outside at all the last 2 weeks you know Autumn weather is already here. Sunday morning temps will be in the 40’s so please dress and pack extra clothes accordingly. It might be raining, the course will be so challenging!
• Bib numbers are always on your left side for all CCC races.
