The path to becoming a licensed mechanic and advancing your skills is all right here.
The process to becoming a licensed USA Cycling Race Mechanic begins with your completion of our Race Mechanics course. This in-person course is taught by current USAC mechanics and will teach you what is needed to begin working as a race or team Mechanic. Individuals who complete the course will be eligible for a category 4 Mechanics license and begin the pathway for a wrenching career. Through experience and additional education, you can apply for upgrades through category 1.
This course will build on the attendees existing mechanic's knowledge and experience, and focuses on preparing the attendees to be a mechanic at a race or working for a team.
Other Requirements
The Mechanics license requires yearly Safe Sport training and a Background Check every two years. Both items must be current prior to receiving or renewing a mechanics license.
