Who we are...

Firefighters Racing (FFR) is U23/25 team focused on developing the next generation of cycling talent, with an focus on the top North American riders, and an eye out for riders from across the globe. 

FFR uses cycling to spread the word about our professional rescuers suffering chronic to terminal illnesses, with the most glaring group being the rescue and recovery professionals who spent days, weeks and even months working to recover our rescuers lost at Ground Zero. 

First Responders everywhere are at risk for health issues that don't go away.  For many it’s a chronic cough or allergies that can be traced to toxins we encountered everyday on the job. For others is is chronic overuse and catastrophic injuries suffered in the decades spent being there when others were in need, with little regard for their own safety. 

It wasn't until a proposed Bike Ride in New York to commemorate the 10th anniversary of 9/11 started to come apart, that the idea of a U23 team began to take shape.  And once it started nothing could stop it, including the loss of our title sponsor.

The 2011 season has just ended and "The Firefighters" made it a memorable one, winning races from Mexico City to Seattle and most places in between.

And when they visit a new town or city, they will visit the Fire Stations you work in, and help share the value of riding bikes in building a great fitness program. Help us bring this team to your city, and cheer on your boys when they cross the line first!
