Become a Sponsor
The Air Force Cycling Team is built entirely of volunteers. All of or funding comes from donations and is tax deductible. Here’s some ways you can support us:
Young Airmen Scholarship
The cost of a bike, kit, event fees and travel expenses can be a lot for some of our young Airmen riders.
Consumable Gear Donations
We hand out at least 300-400 innertubes a year at RAGBRAI and could always use more
Monetary Donations
Cash donations can offset the cost of gas, water, trucks and bus transportation
Other Donations
If you can offer something less tangible, please reach out! Perhaps you own a really cool bathroom trailer we can borrow…
Friends of the Team
These fine establishments support the team’s mission either through steep discounts, supply donations, or are pretty cool themselves!

My husband (retired SMSgt) always says, "Why not Minot? Freezin's the reason!" I can't imagine being in Anchorage!
Just a few days away from knowing where we can take our Team Photo this year. The 2017 below was pretty awesome !!
This is always a special event during RAGBRAI. Last year we had a great venue and an amazing photo supported by the Iowa Air National Guard and the 185th ARW.
What town will be be able to get a world class photo in this year? Time will tell…once we know the route we are open to suggestions!OK #RAGBRAIHistory buffs... the photo was from RAGBRAI XLV in 2017!
Of course this is the beloved Air Force Cycling Team - they have "flown in" to assist countless cyclists through the years!
