After a few years on the Downhill World Cup Circuit, they knew they could contribute so much more to the cycling community if they had the right support and structure. Beyond Racing exists as a platform for Anna & Abby to achieve great results and share their passion for cycling with the world.Beyond Racing started with two friends and the shared dream of building their own UCI Team.
