Our
Purpose
The PCA Women’s Racing Committee was formed in 2007 better coordinate
and promote a cohesive and inclusive program for women’s racing
for all categories in PA. Its goals are to 1) communicate with women
racers; 2) increase women’s participation at races; 3) coordinate
with PCA and race clubs/promoters to ensure equitable opportunities
for women; and, 4) advocate for races that are both challenging and
rewarding.
How
We Operate
The women’s racing committee functions as an electronic committee.
All of our business is conducted online and is ad-hoc in nature (meaning
we don’t have a regular schedule of communication). We encourage
folks to participate as they wish. Comments/feedback/tasks are deadline
driven, and failure to provide your input, vote or thoughts by the deadline
assumes agreement/support. It is our goal to create an open, respectful
and productive dialogue among women racers to improve women’s
racing in PA. Everyone’s experience and contribution is valued.

Our Google
Group
PA Women's Racing uses Google Groups as a means to communicate about
races and news relevant to women cyclists in PA. Our intention is to
send out weekly emails during the race season to keep women up-to-date
on the latest PA happenings and to promote races that support women's
racing.
