DISTRICT TACO RACING

OUR PASSION
–
District Taco Racing was established to excite the MABRA race scene. Founded in 2014, we are a team of racers focused on building strong relationships, team-based strategies, and the determination to win at every level. We've continued to grow and evolve as a team and in or love for the sport. What started as just a few guys racing local crits has grown to a 50-person team with squads of men and women focusing on Road, Gravel, CX, MTB, and eSports.
THE TEAM
2022
District Taco Racing is made up of 50 riders from the Washington D.C. area and beyond. We’re diverse in age and experience, but we are bound together with common purpose — we give our all to our team, our sponsors and the cycling community. Look for our development and elite squads at local MABRA events and big-stage races like Unbound, the Armed Forces Cycling Classic, and more.

OUR SPONSORS
Our racing team is grateful to have the support of the following sponsors for 2017. We offer our support and hopefully your's as well in return.
FUEL: District Taco
In 2009, two neighbors got together over some homemade chips, salsa and guacamole and decided to launch District Taco as a food truck. District Taco has since grown and now operates multiple locations in and around Washington DC.
District Taco's mission is to serve quality Mexican (Yucatan style!) food that is fresh, simple and healthy. All food is made fresh daily from quality ingredients. District Taco strives to limit its impact on the environment by serving in environmentally-friendly packaging where possible.
"Orale!" which roughly translates to "Right On!"
Mechanics: Conte’s Bike Shop
Conte’s Bike Shop has been serving the cycling community since 1957. To this day, the Conte’s family still leads the direction of Conte’s Bike Shop. What started as a small shop in the Tidewater Region of Virginia has grown to a network of shops covering nearly the entire East Coast, from Boston to South Florida. Conte’s Bike Shop is proud to supply expert service, a curated selection of products and brands, professional bike fitting, and plenty more.
Machines: Cannondale
From a Connecticut workshop Cannondale set about revolutionizing cycling for the better, for everyone. They assumed nothing, iterated and reiterated and from day one they have worked on pioneering materials, ergonomics and technology, and they haven’t looked back since.
KIT: Pactimo
Pactimo is a Colorado company known for quality, reliability and unsurpassed customer service. Since 2003, they’ve shipped over 1.6 million garments to Olympians, national champions, teams, clubs and individual cyclists around the globe. They hope you feel the inspiration of Colorado and our passion for cycling in everything they do.
SPINNY BITS: Kogel Bearings
Known for their "not for Instagram" pulleys and high-quality bottom brackets, Kogel Bearings makes the best bearings around. When you're looking for every advantage possible, these bearings help you shave critical watts in high-friction areas. Incredibly, these smooth-running bearings are also highly durable. DT Racing is thrilled to have these bearings on our race rigs!
