All MABRA Junior Women’s World Team
Craig Etheridge
Hi Everyone,
I hope you're all enjoying this riding and racing this season. I have exciting news regarding the 2025 Road World Championships. As of now, only three junior women have qualified- and to no one’s surprise- they are all from MABRA!
I’m Lidia Cusack, and have qualified alongside Alyssa Sarkisov, and Lily Edwards. We all started cycling on RCV, then moved on to dcdevo. Mabra produces such competitive riders due to opportunities created for young riders, the extensive race calendar, and most of all, the great community.
However, as we are gearing up to head to Kigali, Rwanda, we will have to cover our own cost of travel, as well as a pricey ground fee. To help us with these costs, Olympian and 3x former jr world champion Megan Jastrab is leading the charge in setting up a fundraiser for this promising group of girls. The goal is to raise enough that we can go to Rwanda free of charge, and put all of our energy and focus on competing.
You can read more about it here. If you are in the position, a donation would be greatly appreciated. If not, consider sharing this with other cyclists or sport enthusiasts. And we all hope that you tune in to watch us race the Time Trial on Sep 23, and Road Race on Sep 27
Thanks so much!
Lidia
