American Women's Track Cycling Fund The vision of the AWTCF is to make an impact in the lives of young female track cyclists. We believe that cycling, and track cycling in particular, can teach valuable lessons that are applicable far beyond the cycling arena. Whether at the developmental or elite level, we aspire to help bring our experience and support to as many young women as possible. The mission of the American Women's Track Cycling Fund will be to support, mentor, equip and finance the efforts of future and current cycling champions. Through the Sarah Hammer Developmental Program, the AWTCF's mission is to create champions both on and off the bicycle. http://www.awtcf.org

SarahUlmerbrand.com Sarah was the Olympic Gold medalist in the 3kms pursuit at the Athens Olympics in 2004, blistering the world record in 3 minutes and 24 seconds which is over 53kms per hour! She has since created her own line of bikes tailored to women and she is devoted, via a series of fun rides and runs throughout New Zealand and soon in Australia, to getting women and girls out on the roads! She has started creating training groups so I'd recommend (even if you don't live in New Zealand) signing up for her news letter, they're motivating and offer good tips! http://www.sarahulmerbrand.com
