What is the Venturing Cycling Program?
The Denver Area Council and USA Cycling see Venturing Crews as the ideal way to promote cycling year round and encourage physical fitness. The vision of the Venturing Cycling Program is to facilitate youth experiences in all aspect of cycling. Each crew will develop a program to teach proper skills and techniques to prepare their members to participate as a team in local rides and races. USA Cycling and the Denver Area Council will provide training support and guidance to crew leaders. Other program opportunities being developed are training rides with support from USA Cycling athletes and a competitive road cycling series for crews.
Check out the program guide for more information on joining or forming a crew.
