WHAT WE PROVIDE
Fount Cycling Foundation provides the necessary equipment, support, coaching, and opportunities to develop potential into world-class talent. Cycling can cost an individual rider $2,000+ in entry fees, travel, and lodging per race, not including coaching equipment, and other training costs.
We don’t want cost to be a barrier to reaching potential. We put 100% of all donations back into the program (see below for more details), providing necessary opportunity for our programs to gain experience and excel at top-level races. Show your support for furthering our women’s and youth programs by donating today!
