The full lineup of 10 invited teams have been confirmed by organisers of the National Cycling League, now in the home stretch before the opening round of the NCL Cup criterium series on April 8 at the Miami Beach Invitational. Across four competitions this summer in the US, the new series requires women’s and men’s teams to partner together in a points-based format using combined scoring for a $1 million prize purse.
A total of five squads support both men and women with a unified, or ‘co-ed’ affiliation, including Team Skyline, on the US Continental level on the men’s side, and established US domestic elite programmes Fount Cycling Guild and Team SupraBars.com. The other two teams, Denver Disruptors and Miami Nights begin their first season on the domestic elite level and were created by the league itself.
