The Capitol Velo Club made its debut in 1989 as the first all women's cycling club in Wisconsin. The club distinguished itself by focusing on racing tactics and skill-based training rides and clinics. CVC today is dedicated to helping women of all levels develop the technique and strength to ride more proficiently whether racing on the road, track, dirt, riding with Bombay Bicycle Club, or touring on weekends.
CVC offers two training rides each week from April through August along with a range of knowledge and skill based clinics in pacelining, hill climbing, time trialing, bumping, strategy & tactics, cornering, bike maintenance, and winter fitness. Our membership of approximately forty cyclists has a range of interests including riding for fitness, road racing, cyclo-cross, track racing, triathlon, adventure racing, and touring. We also host the October Badger Cross cylco-cross race in Verona, Wisconsin.
