Veloforma
The Northwest's premier elite women's team, Veloforma is an exciting new program. The creation of the women's elite program filled a need to offer the highest level of support for the top women racers in the area. The program continues to grow and now supports racers at the professional level and travels to national racing calendar (NRC) events. The team also supports a development team of up-and-coming cyclists. The team is sponsored by Veloforma Cycles, a Portland based manufacturer of high end carbon racing bicycles. We are pleased to be associated with this team and are eager to help them succeed at the top level of the sport.

Portland Velo
Portland Velo is the largest racing club in Oregon. Even more impressive, the club is one of the newest as well. The racing team was created in addition to the recreational club when there became a clear demand form members to further challenge themselves and begin competing. The team is active in nearly every event in Oregon. This team has a cohesive, fun, and highly organized membership base. We enjoy working with Portland Velo and appreciate all they do for the cycling community in Portland, OR.
