Pella Roubaix

Join us on Saturday, April 22nd in Pella for a mix-surfaced race consisting of paved and gravel terrain. Modeled after the European Spring Classics and Monuments spanning across Europe, this isn’t a quite a gravel race and it’s not quite a road race. With Spring in Iowa mixed in, this event will be sure to challenge you mentally as well as physically. More details in our tab at the top of the page.

Registration:

Registration closes Monday, April 17th at 5:30 PM CST.

Elkhart Time Trial: August

A beautiful night to conclude the Elkhart TT Series. Just an hour prior to the start of the race temps were hovering in the 90’s only to have the much needed weather front come through and drop temps to the lower 80’s by the start. A huge thank you to everyone that came out this year! Looking back in January when planning started, it was a bit of a toss up on whether we’d be racing this year. Thankful a sense of normalcy was established throughout the series and racing was able to resume. Due to some miscommunication on our part, we weren’t able to do podiums and hand out prizes following the race and rather than have folks wait around any longer we opted to send out prizes and swag to those winners. Again, apologies for the inconvenience and hopefully it doesn’t put a damper on the series. Thank you again to all those that volunteered and participated! See you next year!

Elkhart Time Trial: July

A great turnout for a gorgeous night in Elkhart! 64 total riders toed the line on the evening. Temp was hovering around the mid 70’s with a 0-8 MPH S wind!

Elkhart Time Trial: June

Another great turnout for a steamy night in Elkhart! Looks like we had 61 total riders for the evening. Temp was hovering around 90 with a 5-10 MPH SSE wind. A little closer to normalcy arose as state mandates have started to relax. Always fun to hear chatter about racers improving their times as the series progresses. USAC results will be coming in the next few days. Looking forward to July! Here is a link to the July Facebook Event:

Elkhart Time Trial: May

Great turnout for a beautiful night in Elkhart! Looks like we had 66 total riders for the evening. Temp was hovering in the mid 60’s with the wind out of the south 10-20 MPH. In talking with some of the racers, it sounded like the feel was somewhat normal to previous years and it was great to be racing bikes again! We will work to get results posted that evening on that night’s Facebook event page following the event. Here is the link for June’s event:

Coming soon! A time trial near you! Elkhart 2021.

Coming back for 2021 is the Elkhart Time Trial! This year Zealous Racing is proud to announce our partnership with Zoom Performance to bring you The Elkhart Time Trail Series. A few changes this season, including scaling down from a 5 race series to 4. Although not ideal, it was decided a few months ago that may be the safest gamble with the pandemic to still be able to run a series. The look and feel of race day will be very similar to years past and the start times will also be the same with the first rider rolling off at 6:30 PM and each following rider 30 seconds after. There will be some changes to staging, so stay tuned for those as they come. We have events posted on Facebook and updates will be communicated through those events. And as in years past, there will be discounts for those that sign up for the whole series.

Registration will be opening soon through BikeReg. We will have a link on this page as well as the Facebook event pages for registration once it goes live. Come out and test yourself for 2021!
