A day before snow turned Badger Prairie Park into a sloppy mess, racers turned laps in almost perfect conditions for the WCA Wisconsin Cup Cyclocross Championships.
Isaac Neff, of Madison, held off his friend, Corey Stelljes, to win the men’s pro 1/2 race, and Abby Strigel raced well out front of the field for the women’s pro victory.
Full results for the Wisconsin Cup can be found here.
