New Track opening in Illinois

This is a new Alan Wilson (Barber, Gingerman) designed private track that's opened in Joliet, Illinois. It's a private club with membership dues (hmm...kid's college tuition or track membership ). WERA and STT have dates booked for the 2005 season already. If I only lived closer...

Autobahn Country Club

Agreed...sure beats joining a golf club! It's received some pretty good reviews from a bike perspective:

Looks awesome.

If I got a membership I would quit my job so I could ride everyday. Hmmm I would probably like to flog a car as well though.
Come on MegaMillions.

Re: New Track opening in Illinois

I got a flyer in the mail today from Jason Pridmore's Star School that lists a WEEKEND date there .. I may have to rethink the Gingerman school. Been there, slid that.
