Young Majors NYCC

Started in 2022, The New York Cycle Club (NYCC) and Major Taylor Iron Riders (MTIR) are collaborating on a fall youth training program that brings more young people — with an emphasis on Black, Latinx, and Asian boys and girls — to the lifestyle and discipline of road cycling. NYCC’s trademark SIG training series was leveraged to develop this program.
