RR - Saturday June 7th - Arma, KS Crit - Sunday June 8th - Pittsburg, KS TT - Sunday June 22nd - Walnut, KS You can find all the race specifics plus lodging info at the race website.

Both the RR & Crit have air conditioned buildings and showers available on-site.
http://www.tailwindcyclists.com/localevents/race/index.htm Here are a few details of each race:
RR - Course is the same as always. This year the Cat 5 Men and all women's races will start at 8 AM and be done by 10:30 AM when the Cat 1-4 men's races start. This split start will have fewer races on the course at once and avoid the problem of one race "catching" another. Wheel vehicles will be following each race and a neutral feed zone (Trek provides the bottles, we have feeders) will be supplied by Trek, racers can bring their own feed person as well. Post race showers are available at the high school. Crit - Same course on the PSU campus with some wide open stretches, a very technical twisty back stretch and one small hill. Plenty of parking and showers on site always make the race very racer friendly. TT - All categories do 40K on the famous Walnut course. Registration and awards will be in the St. Patrick's Church Hall with both breakfast and lunch served to any hungry racers for a donation to the Church fund. Start times are established by registration time (regardless of category) so register early if you want an early start time. A list of pre-registered racers and their start times will be posted at the TT web page on Friday June 20th at or after 8 PM. Day of race registrants will not know their start times until 1/2 hour before the race begins when registration closes. You can register online for all the races at sportsbaseonline.com
