BIG. CRIT. ENERGY.
10 RACES IN 10 DAYS WITH TIGHT CORNERS + INSANE SPEED + A PARTY ATMOSPHERE = BIG. CRIT. ENERGY.
After 11 years of racing under our former name…we changed our name. But that’s really all that changed. We’re keeping the awesome courses you’ve come to love, the tight corners, adrenaline-filled race atmosphere, and epic block parties. Click below to listen live.
WHY CHICAGO GRIT?
We wanted a new name that reflects the spirit of our riders who are badass and full-send, as well as the communities in which we are fortunate to race. We knew Chicago had to be in the name, and we liked the word Grit – because that’s what you need to race 10 days of full-send criteriums on technical courses.

Stevie is taking a well deserved, much needed rest day. 7 days of racing and 8 days of working crew can take it’s toll- but don’t worry, we’re going to have some excellent Stevie content coming up.

Race day highlights from Day 7 Northbrook
So awesome to watch this team grab a win after 7 days of solid riding! @nzcyclingproject has been strong through the entire series, making it into breakaways but never grabbing that top step. @__jamesgardner launched a break with maybe 10-12 to go, and was surprised to see @marshallerwood on his wheel. They held a gap of about :15 to the end, riding in arm in arm as Marshall took the top step. Sweet as! 🎉🤩💪🏼❤️🤌🏽
