It has just been brought to my attention that the recent issue of Cycle USA has an incorrect District 17 hillclimb schedule – the June 11th &12th Pleasure Riders M/C events are wrongly listed as being in Cayuga, IN (the regular PRMC clubgrounds). Those events are NOT at the usual PRMC location in Cayuga – they are at the new Thunder Ridge facility in Neoga, IL – site of this year’s AMA Hillclimb Grand Championship. Please make note of this and make sure you go to the correct location…if you show up at the PRMC clubgrounds that morning, you’ll be about an hour and a half away from where you’re supposed to be.
The events at Thunder Ridge in June will be something of a shakedown for the new facility, and your one-and-only chance to try out the new hill before nationals. The hill design is more akin to what you see a lot at NAHA pro events than a traditional midwest layout, so getting there in June and having a chance to dial it in might just be the hot ticket to make sure you’re at your best for nationals! Hope to see you there!
