The Cycling Development Foundation Racing pathway aims to prepare athletes for professional sport, meaning retaining athletes is secondary to seeing them move on to professional ranks.
We provide opportunity for identified athletes who may require capital, financial, and developmental assistance in reaching the top tiers of their cycling capacity.
Capital assistance refers to items such as:
• Clothing
• Bicycles
• Equipment- such as helmets etc.
Financial assistance such as:
• Access to a National Road Series team struture
• Transport funding to reach high level events, like NRS, Asian UCI events, Europe etc.
• Logistical support
• Airfares
• Race entry
Developmental assistance such as:
• Access to research grade testing and reporting facilities similar to those used at an institute level
• Multiple sport science level practitioners using latest evidence based systems to further athlete development, both physical, psychological, and social.
• Coaching and training systems in line with current scientific evidence with the aim of readying athletes for racing/training at a professional level (for instance our coaching staff attend European based coaching seminars alongside 60% of the Pro Tour team’s coaching/racing staff). This combined with a vast amount of elite level cycling experience allows for optimal athlete development systems within a cycling framework.

The above combined with a good corporate governance model (the board over see’s the actions of the management staff working with athletes) means we are transparent and accountable to our actions. The CDF Racing pathway sits under an incorporated not-for-profit ‘Cycling Development Foundation’ which is managed by a board of 6 professional executives
An athlete who is identified and is interested in this pathway can participate in the program for a trial period to ensure the systems and processes are right for them
