2014 Women's Team
Mission Statement
The women's team is being created in response to the growing need for a cycling program that truly focuses on growing and developing women's cycling at a local grassroots level. Our mission is to create an environment that is fun, safe, encouraging, and competitive and promotes life-long athleticism. Not everyone is hyper- competitive, but that should not detract from the ability to enjoy cycling as a group. We believe that if we build a program that allows individuals grow into the sport of cycling and continue to foster development for all levels that the net result will be a successful women's team.
Goals
- Bring together a team of fun, capable women, who share passion for cycling and racing
- Grow and develop women's cycling/racing in the Seattle area
- Support women's cycling/racing in the Pacific Northwest at all levels of the sport
- Create an environment where supportive relationships develop and lead to results and individual goal achievement
