TBRA Defunct It’s only taken me more than a year, but I’ve finally been able to confirm that TBRA-the TN Bicycle Racing Association-is defunct. The website has not been kept up, and there are not that many race in Tennessee these days. I’ve been pulling them from USAC’s event search and a couple of single-event/promoter sites that I know of. I’ve heard the same of the Carolinas Cycling Association although there does appear to be very limited activity on their Facebook site It seems like USAC has been letting their local associations die out. GBRA is still very much around for Georgia. They keep up with the state championships, the state champ jerseys and medals, and such.
News for 9-21-2025 I’ve been asked recently why I do not list races like NICA, Georgia Cycling, and Collegiate (USAC) racing on the calendars. These have very limited audiences and are not open to everyone. If your high schooler or middle schooler is on a GC team, you know when the races are. Same with collegiate–you know or your coach tells you. I only list races that are open to the “public.” By design, NICA, GC, and USAC Collegiate races have restricted entries. Yes, some races listed are age specific like the “NC Senior Games” and such–but anyone from any state that is the right age can race. Not the same as with the others I mentioned. So, that’s why you won’t see restricted registration races on Southeastern Cycling. For example you have a 16 year old high school Junior that wants to register for a Georgia Cycling race, but they arent’ on a GC team. They can’t register even if they are the right age. They have to join a team. If you do have a MS or HS student that wants to race mountain bikes, please contact GC or NICA to find the team nearest to you.
News for 9-19-2025 I have no words. I am so sad you are gone, Ken. You were loved by your family and so many in your extended bike family. Everyone is welcome on Sunday, Oct. 12.
