Support Rutgers Cycling

Some of you may have seen the article in today's New York Times about the ways in which some collegiate teams are forced to fund themselves.

Odd Jobs Help Collegiate Teams Stay Afloat

Rutgers Cycling, like many of the teams featured in the article, relies heavily on fundraising to supply its budget. While the University does offer some funding to the team, it is less than 10% of what it costs to run a cycling team that competes 10 months out of the year in over 100 events nationally.

This year, Rutgers Cycling has committed to supporting its racers even more than previous years in both funding and equipment. We can only do this with your support.

Contact Rutgers Cycling at Sponsorship@rutgerscycling.com to find out how you can support collegiate cycling at Rutgers.
