Team Revolution

“Mother, daughter share passion for cyclocross racing”
A nice article about Syd and her mom. Cool.

Ever ridden with someone who is constantly 10 yards or even a half mile ahead of you? It’s not enjoyable. We understand that no one learns overnight and everyone needs someone encouraging to ride with.

We try to accommodate all women with a means to ride: through finding bikes to borrow or rent, supplying new pedals someone’s been dying to try or giving the encouragement and advice necessary to climb that hill a bit easier, and more efficiently. As each woman learns to ride at higher levels we help pave the way to personal success, determined by each individual.

Team Revolution aims to be the resource and community for all women seeking direction, information, ride assistance, ride partners, and encouragement. Here is a list of clinics that will be offered in 2008 to help get more women riding bikes and staying fit:
