Our Crowdfunding Groups
Wow! With your help, we knocked this fundraiser out of the park! Not only did we meet our goal, but this was the most successful campaign we've had to date! We're honored by your support and encouragement and are excited about the upcoming races.
Our tickets are booked, lodging reserved, and in just over a week, we'll be competing against the nation's best to bring home some national titles to Tucson! You can follow our journey on our FB (https://www.facebook.com/uofacycling) and Instagram (@uacycling). Also, look for more info about our end-of-the-year celebration at the Mercado Annex on 5/11 @ 5 PM. I'm sure we'll have lots of good race stories to share!
