USA CYCLING REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT CAMPS - Camps got underway in June; More scheduled for July!
Part of USA Cycling's development pathway, Regional Development Camps are held in road and cross-country mountain bike and are open to riders racing age 14 to 22 who meet USA Cycling's eligibility requirements. These camps are great places to be discovered by USA Cycling.
Some participants may be invited to move further along the development pathway through participation in national development camps and international competition. Our development camp coaches are always looking for exceptional young talent, like Geoffrey Curran and TJ Eisenhart, both who recently qualified for USA Cycling's team for the Junior Road World Championships after honing their talents at multiple Regional Development Camps.
