2016 Road Season Recap

The 2016 road season was an extremely successful season for Lehigh Cycling in many ways.  Over the winter, the team began indoor training with hopes of achieving greatness in the short road racing season this year.  Weekly training sessions ensured a solid base for each member as the season approached.  A cold first few weeks of racing didn't deter the team from going out and giving it their all.  This season had the highest number of average racers per weekend from Lehigh in many years.

Many members were experiencing road racing for the first time, and were able to learn a lot from other conference racers and themselves.  Throughout the season, results improved for most members as their aspirations of upgrading racing categories became reality.  Although some members will be graduating after this year, they all look forward to racing in the future in both collegiate and non-collegiate races.

The team will be represented in North Carolina on May 13 and 14 for USAC Collegiate Road Nationals and is hoping to place well in both the road race and criterium.
