The Growing List of Black Women in Pro Road Racing

Photo by: Marton Merritt

Y’all know I love rooting for everybody Black. So I’ve started a list of Black women in pro road racing so y’all can root with me. In 2022 we have even more Black women to root for, and I am THRILLED!

I’ve made a list of all the Black women in pro road racing I could find, but PLEASE let me know if I’ve forgotten anyone. It’s pretty awesome to be on this list myself and I imagine you already follow me (since you’re on my website), but here are more Instagrams and names to hoot and holler for and to liven up your feed! This list is in no particular order.

I intend to keep growing this list as the sport grows. I’ve started a list of men as well, but I’ll save that for later!
