1988 – 1992: USAC Board of Directors

Development Committee

1. Creation of educational resources for clubs

2. Club of the Year competition to get clubs to think about how to improve themselves & their members

3. Paid promoters to have separate Women’s 1-2 and Women’s 3-4 races (instead of: one Women’s race, all categories & ages)

4. Purchased 100+ track bikes for velodromes, to be used as rentals (thus reducing a barrier to entry to track racing to just $5)

5. Created Regional Coordinators

6. Began the replacement of ‘Stock Bike races’ with Category 5 with the goal of having racers demonstrate proficiency in driving skills and knowledge of the rules, before upgrading into Category 4 and thus the general population of racers.

7. With fellow BOD member Connie Carpenter created the concept of a career path, and supporting resources.

8. Due to concerns that European racer’s PED use may be spreading to North America, I had several hundred racers in America submit to random and unannounced drug tests. While European racer’s use of PEDs was thought to be about 100%, the testing of racers in North America showed a usage rate of less than 2% for North American racers.

9. Effected changes to business model
