The Asheville Bicycle Racing Club

Friendship, Support and Fun

Women’s Group

Women participation in the Club has been embraced and encouraged during the Club’s history, organization and future development. Women Club members have enjoyed the spotlight as elite racers, race promoters, Club officers, Board members, or simply as patron members. Our open structure and no commitment to racing often attract women riders from all spectrums of cycling fitness to join. Whether you love biking and want to support the local bike Club, want to race, or simply want to ride and socialize with a group of others just like you, look no further.

Racing Members

Women that enjoy challenging their body and soul have a place to call their own. Just like everyone else in the Club, women racers share the same benefits and support when it comes to bike racing. Some of these benefits include free kits when you complete 10 USAC/NORBA sanctioned events, registration fee reimbursement (as the budget allows), discounted Club gear, pro-deals as offered by our sponsors, and many other. Please refer to the "membership" page for additional information.
Over the years the Club has been privileged to have active women members that have raced or are still racing at elite levels and are available to help others achieve their own personal goals and achievements.
