10 Years of Support

Coastal Virginia's Oldest 

Women's Elite and Developmental Cycling Team

 Fun fact, this is the 10th year our team has been racing, developing female talent, and promoting races. Our goal from the beginning was to both develop local and regional entry-level talent as well as fill the gap for women who have pro aspirations but need a bit more support and experience before they are ready to join a pro team. Our roster has seen so much talent and we are privileged to be even a small part of the success of our riders in the past 10 years. 

When we started there were no other elite women's teams locally and few others regionally. Some years we are big and some years we are small. Our team has seen some really strong elite squads come through (we were invited to the Philly Cycling Classic one year), we have seen some really impressive fast-learning developmental team riders move up the ranks, and never get tired of supporting juniors and the energy they bring as the future of our sport. Every year is different & we try to meet the needs of the riders in Virginia. 

We are so happy to see how the efforts of a great many people locally, regionally, and nationally have helped to grow the sport for women in the last ten years- great strides have been made. Make no mistake, we know that we are a very small part of those strides, but we are still proud of the role we have played. 

We know we are nothing without the support of our sponsors, so big thanks to the businesses who have proven to be dedicated to our team and women’s cycling. Virginia Asset Group and Mermaid Winery, both long-time sponsors, are b

usinesses who see the value in what we do as a team and in our community. We feel very lucky to have had such unwavering support for so many years from our sponsors. They believe in us and we also value their impact on the community, they are leaders in their fields. 

Support the businesses that invest in women's cycling! Please consider eating and drinking at Mermaid Winery, investing with Virginia Asset Group, and getting your bike gear and service from East Coast Bicycles.

Special thanks also go out to the local racing legends Bill Collins and Dan Netzer who have helped our small team throughout the years by supporting us as a sister team and giving countless other help.
