Friends of Hopkins
Become Involved

Hopkins Cycling is one of the greatest sporting opportunities Johns Hopkins University has to offer. Where else can a Hopkins student attain phenomenal fitness along with professional training, freely escape the grind of campus and the stresses of the city; resolving to be part of one of the best university cycling teams in the country? Unfortunately, financial constraints placed on many students limit their ability to reap the full rewards of Hopkins Cycling. We started Friends of Hopkins Cycling to remove some of these barriers thereby allowing participation by more students.

The goal of Friends of Hopkins Cycling is to bring this opportunity to more students by reducing their costs and providing a network of support. This year projected expenditures will exceed $25,000, of which the university provides only ~25%. Our expenses include racing entry fees, travel, hotels, and coaching. We also have a moderate amount of team equipment, to which we hope to soon add "lender bikes" that will be available to rookie club members.
