Breakfast Racing Team
Team Description:
Breakfast Cycling Club is a women-trans-femme & non-binary cycling team aimed to support new bike racers in the Pacific Northwest. Breakfast started as a club in summer 2019 and has since supported WTFNB riders in all local teams, offering an adjacent "club team" that has organized events, social rides, Zwift rides, season kick-off parties, bikepacking trips, and most recently, the Seward Park crit cheer squad. With over 85 members in our Strava group, Breakfast has recently made the plunge to start our very own racing roster: Breakfast Racing Team. Led by Ella Dorband and Mackenna Lees, Breakfast Racing Team will have a full cyclocross roster in fall 2021 across categories 2-5, and will pursue team presence at road races and Jerry Baker Velodrome in 2022. We are neither a road-only or a dirt-only team, we like doing a bit of it all. Most importantly, we're not just a ladies team. Join our adventure!

Team Dues:
Breakfast has a suggested membership fee of 0.1% of your annual salary, if you make above $60,000. For example, an individual making $60,000/year might be asked to pay a $60 membership fee. These funds would go to a fund for racers who may not otherwise be able to afford registration fees (most race registration is $35-50).
