SEARCH FOR SPEED

Designed to grow the track sprint discipline, the Los Angeles-based initiative leverages a progressive series of community engagement, talent identification, talent development, and talent integration programs to introduce individuals with diverse athletic and socioeconomic backgrounds to the sport of cycling and rapidly transform talented athletes into Olympic hopefuls. With the entire athlete development pathway housed in southern California, the program aims to diversify the sport of cycling by reaching new and underrepresented communities, while cultivating a continually growing pool of remarkable talent.

The MudFund

Cyclocross has been a longstanding entry point into bike racing for young riders and has proven instrumental in developing the technical, physiological and mental skills that translate across all cycling disciplines. This makes cyclocross one of the key disciplines for long term athlete development.

The MudFund exists to support America’s most promising, young cyclocross riders. It supports USA Cycling’s core cyclocross programming, including international racing opportunities, domestic skills camps and holistic athlete coaching and services.

The Special Incentives of Non-Cash Securities

Many securities you own may be worth much more than you paid for them in past years. As appreciated securities, these are attractive gifts. In most cases the deduction is for the current fair market value of the securities given. The deductible amount includes both what you paid and your gain. This may dramatically reduce the cost of making a charitable gift, or help to increase the amount you can afford to give. To deduct gifts of appreciated securities at their current value, you must have owned them for at least one year and one day.
