Potomac Velo Club was founded in 1992 to promote the sport of cycling. Based in Northern Virginia, membership consists of about 30 riders at all levels of cycling experience. Some member have been on the racing scene for 20 or 30 years, others are just starting out. Some excel on the road, others venture into mountain biking, cyclo-cross and even track arenas.
Membership is open to all, no specific skills or experience is required.
One of Potomac Velo Club's strongest features is the promotion of yearly cycling events consisting of mountain bike and cyclocross races. In 2000, Potomac Velo Club promoted a Spring mountain bike race and 2 Fall cyclocross races. In its first year, this four race series, split between Reston and Richmond, Virginia, saw great turnout and the future looks even brighter in 2001 for this fast-growing sport.
