The Racing Division is an elite criterium cycling team based out of Johnson City, Tennessee. We strive to promote and encourage the growth of the criterium cycling industry in North America, through both racing and riding.
Since we were originally established in 2024, a lot has changed. We have a new team, mission, sponsors and look this year!
