The course
Location
City insight: Wichita
Wichita is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Kansas and the county seat of Sedgwick County, in the south-central part of the state along the Arkansas River. Summers are hot and winters are cold, with strong winds year-round, so spring and autumn are the best seasons to race.
