She's the real deal

The BTC Board of Directors is proud to share and celebrate the latest success of one of our founding Board Members, Cari Higgins.

Cari has recently been elected as the new Chairwoman of the USA Cycling Board of Directors. She will be the first Athlete Representative on the Board, and the first woman to ever hold this leadership position.

Most people would be surprised to learn that between 2008 and 2016, she raced on professional cycling teams, as well as the US National Team. She has won both road and track races all over the world, racking up 23 National Championships and nine medals at the Pan American Championships in the process. Having played soccer at The University of Alabama, sport has always been an important part of her life and has largely shaped who she is as a person. 

We are proud of her new role with USA Cycling and know that the same passion and leadership skills that bring her to this role will continue to shine in her work with Brake the Cycle.
