Bike Racing for Kids & Teens
Your cycling journey can begin anywhere you want it to. If your child is 18 years old or younger the steps below will help get your child started with USA Cycling.
Buy a membership
In order to race in a USA Cycling sanctioned event, you'll need to purchase your child a JUNIOR RACE or JUNIOR+ membership. Think of it like a VIP membership card that gets them into some of the best races in the United States!
