Welcome to the
Wedgewood Cycling Team
Established in 2004, the Wedgewood Cycling Team ranks as one of British Columbia’s most respected cycling clubs. From spirited team rides to fundraising activities, the Wedgewood Cycling Team is committed to high performance, social responsibility and two-wheeled camaraderie.
We pride ourselves on our community involvement. In particular, Wedgewood Cycling donates proceeds from our races and fundraising events to the B.C. Cancer Foundation – an independent charitable organization that raises funds to support breakthrough research and care at the B.C. Cancer Agency. Their vision is a World Free from Cancer. Our aim is to help them make this a reality.
