Yup - racing is pricey in the US. I just checked, and to date, I have spent:
  • $390 race registration
  • $60 racing license
  • $70 club membership and TT registration
  • $10 for a racing clinic

Note that none of this includes any components/maintenance to bikes, gas to and from venues, etc. I also didn't include the cost of my club kit, which with shorts, jerseys, skinsuits, etc is somewhere around $350...

I also still have a full month and a half of race registrations to come, including Nationals, which will run $74.

Thanks - I REALLY didn't need this breakdown.....
