Devo+
Devo+ will continue to provide opportunities at camps for boys and girls that have either aged out of Devo or have shown exemplary performance markers at prior camps and are trending towards Evo caliber. Camp invites for Devo + will be at the sole discretion of USA Cycling coaches.
Also new for 2015 are designated spots at camps for Evolution (Evo) caliber riders. USA Cycling wants to provide as many opportunities as possible to help facilitate the transition from Devo+ athlete to Elite athlete, thus these spots are reserved for the top tier of our development talent. The Evo spots at camps are designed to provide more time and coaching on SX tracks to keep developing riders engaged and working toward becoming a high performance Elite racer. This model also allows for Devo and Devo+ riders to train and race alongside Evo riders that have previously been through the same program and who can also serve as role models to the younger riders. Camp invites for Evo will be at the sole discretion of USA Cycling coaches.
2015 Camp Dates
- April 26-May 3
- June 7-15
- August 16-23
- October 18-25
