Support the University of Richmond Cycling Team
Thank you for your interest! With the conclusion of our first season as a club, we are committed to building our team for the coming 2006-2007 season and having a greater presence within the Richmond cycling community. The success of our team depends upon the support of people like you!

Welcome to the Home of Spider Cycling

The University of Richmond Cycling Team is a member of the Atlantic Coast Cycling
Conference (ACCC) and is sanctioned by USA Cycling.

Don’t be fooled by our club status! Although the University of Richmond classifies cycling as a club sport, we are an extremely competitive team. We are a member of the National Collegiate Cycling Association (a division of USA Cycling), which administers, develops, promotes and governs collegiate cycling across the country.

Today, there are approximately 215 NCCA member collegiate cycling clubs with over 2,500 member athletes. Each club belongs to a particular collegiate cycling conference, which is designated on the basis of the school's location.

UR Cycling competes primarily within the Atlantic Coast Cycling Conference, which includes the states of Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Washington DC, and Maryland.  Collegiate races begin in early spring and conclude with regional and national competitions in late April. Races are hosted by individual schools within our conference, which requires that the team travel nearly every weekend in order to race.  We also compete in many non-collegiate races within Richmond and the surrounding areas from March through October.
