NYCC Racing

It’s an outlet for NYCC members to further develop their fitness, speed, and bike handling skills through structured training, group rides and instruction from other riders and racers.  It’s an opportunity for NYCC riders to explore racing for the first time with other like minded club members. We support a competitive set of men's and women's race teams who compete in many of the local, regional, as well as national races with the goal of successful results.
The NYCC Race Team is organized as a sub team of Century Road Club Association (CRCA), providing Race Team members access to all benefits of CRCA membership including CRCA Club only races and clinics. The team also enters races throughout the tri-state region.

NYCC Race and Development Team is for any NYCC member who wants to get faster, stronger, race, or explore the possibility of racing.

What does it cost?

Race Costs

The training and development program is free, and included in the annual club membership fee. Race entry fees typically start around $15 per race. For full details, please visit CRCA.

Team Commitments
