NDCFC and the 2007 National DH cycling team is making history this month!
The NDCFC and the 2007 National DH cycling team is making history this month by launching the first-ever fundraising campaign for the Canadian downhill worlds team! Because Sport Canada does not fund non-Olympic disciplines, that means the CCA doesn't have the budget to support downhill. That's why the NDCFC was created: as a way to help fund athletes to the World Championships, World cups and other international races.
With 10 members on the National DH Team and no funding, manager/coach Chris Colbeck and the athletes have come up with a way to help themselves and the future of the sport! All are trying to travel to the biggest event of the year, the 2007 World Mountain Bike Championships in Fort William, Scotland September 8/9.
Chris Colbeck manager/coach of the 2007 National DH cycling team and former member himself is heading up the National Downhill Cycling Foundation of Canada "NDCFC". "I will not sit back and watch the athletes struggle year after year after year financially! It paralyzes the future growth of the sport" We have organized a major fundraiser in Vancouver, BC to help the athletes.
For more information please visit our web site or contact Chris Colbeck directly.
