Keen Wealth ongoing support of the KCA

We would like to thank Bill Keen and The Keen Wealth Management Group of Wells Fargo Advisors for their ongoing support of the KCA. In 2013 his donation of $1,000, with a KCA match resulted in Junior entry fee’s being limited to $5 which will continue into 2014.

The KCA and Mr. Keen are discussing how to use his 2014 donation of $1,000. If any KCA members have suggestions on possible uses please contact me at dromisch@gmail.com

One Day v. Annual License Information

Posted 1.15.14

As you prepare for the 2014 racing season, please consider the following rules when deciding if you will purchase a one day or annual license. Also, one day license riders are not eligible to earn points in the KCA Kansas Best All Around Rider and Kansas Best All Around Cyclocross Rider competitions.  If you do purchase an annual license, please designate your correct club (and team, if applicable) for each discipline.  The KCA downloads its racer data directly from USAC. If your data is not correct in USAC records, it will not be correct in KCA records.

(c) One-day Beginner licenses may be purchased online through the USA Cycling registration system or onsite at any USA Cycling sanctioned event and are valid for a single day of racing. One-day beginner licenses may only be purchased by the lowest category of racer for that discipline; i.e., category 5 men for road, track, and cyclo-cross, category 4 women for road, track and cyclo-cross, and category 2 or 3 for MTB. One-day licenses may not be used for Championship events. No rider may purchase a one-day beginner license if he or she ever held an annual license with a category higher than any of the aforementioned.

⁽⁵⁾You may apply the cost of your one-day trial competitive license ($15) to the cost of your annual adult membership ($70). To receive the $15 discount, the one day license receipt must be attached to the annual license application at the time of purchase. The one day license and annual license must be for the same rider. The one day license application must have been purchased within three months of the annual license purchase. For an online annual license purchase, the one day license application must be mailed to USA Cycling and a refund will be issued. Only one discount per adult annual license per year will be granted. The discount does not apply to International, Collegiate, or Junior licenses.

2014 USAC ANNUAL LICENSE

Posted 12.2.13

Please designate your correct club and team, if applicable, on your USAC account page when ordering your 2014 annual racing license.  The KCA database obtains its racer data directly from USAC records.  Therefore, if your USAC data is incorrect, your KCA data for registration, results and series scoring will also be incorrect.

USAC Club/Team Affiliations

Posted 10.14.13

The KCA now syncs its racer data with USAC data.  This is done via a download before each race weekend.  Consequently, if you want your club/team changed in the KCA database, you need to change it with USAC.  Please see the link below to Club Membership FAQs, including how to change your club/team affiliation after you have purchased a license.  Please remember that you need to designate to USAC the correct club and team for each discipline you race:  road, cx, mountain, etc. in order for this information to be accurate in the KCA results and series points.  The KCA will send each club president a list of the club’s current members and their club/team affiliation.  Club presidents can use this list to update club/team information with USAC.

How do I change my club affiliation in my account after I have purchased my license?

If you don’t need a physical license mailed to you, please contact membership@usacycling.org or call 719-434-4200 to have your club affiliation updated in your account. If you would like your club affiliation updated and a physical license mailed out, you can “reissue” your license under the “license” tab of your account for $15.00. One of the steps will ask you to update your club and team.
