About Us

Half Acre Cycling is a fresh, new and intimate developmental group of dedicated and motivated cyclists who love racing and challenging ourselves yet still love the bike when we’re not racing. The team was formed as a small group who train and ride together and push each other to do better. With these goals in mind, we want to see how far and how deep we can reach in ourselves.

We are a focused USAC-licensed Chicago-based cycling team of female and male cyclists in categories 3-5 in road, cyclo-cross, track and mountain bike, including USAC-licensed officials, coaches, and a mechanic. We keep our club small, focusing more on the quality, attitudes and spirit of team members, than sheer quantity.

We supported a time trial race and a cyclo-cross race in 2008 and we're going to continue to give back to the sport in 2009. We're also known for our loud and friendly cheering section, our traveling race-day tent, and our tasty sponsor product, always flowing.
