Our Crowdfunding Groups
This past weekend the team raced in the 2019 USA Cycling Collegiate National Championships and brought home an impressive medal haul:
If you are in town, we hope you can join us at the Mercado San Augustin Annex from 6-8 pm to celebrate our successes! More info here: https://www.facebook.com/events/2161522797296866/
We could not have completed this awesome trip and brought home TWO gold medals without your support! From all of us, THANK YOU!
A massive THANK YOU to everyone who donated to our campaign- we knocked it out of the park! Racing starts on 5/10 with the team time trials, and we'll be posting updates on our FB page:

as well as on Twitter and Instagram: @uacycling
Stay tuned and BEAR DOWN!
Thanks to your support, we hit our goal in just one week! We're five weeks out from the races and motivated more than ever! It's a tricky time of the semester with exams, projects, and more going on. We can rest easy knowing that we can start booking lodging and other logistics early and save a bit of cash.
But! We're not done with the fundraiser yet. We decide to do a stretch goal and continue raising funds for our other national championships that we attend throughout the year. Anything raising above and beyond the initial goal will be used for sending ridings to mountain, cyclocross, and hopefully track and BMX nationals!
Bear Down!
WOW! The support we've received the last 24 hours has been incredible, and we can't believe we've cleared $2,100 in such a short time! Having a community this excited adds fuel to the fire- we are pumped to represent you, the school, and our state. Keep liking and sharing the link to the project- let's knock this one out of the park!
Onward and upward!
