Your 2012 Cycling BC License expired on December 31, 2012.
2013 Licenses are available for purchase as of now!
The renewal process is fast and easy, and should take you less than 5 minutes.
Note: you will be asked for a digital photo to upload during the license renewal. It is a good idea to have that ready. Most BCMCA racers order a Citizen Road License and it is $48.00. You need Cycling BC rider insurance (racing license) to enter BCMCA Events. It provides your liability insurance while racing.

What you need to know about BCMCA Membership, Racing Licenses and Online Registrations

  1.         Membership in BC Masters Cycling Association can be regarded as a Club Membership; but is not a requirement for race participation. It allows you to enter BCMCA events with lower entry fee. We welcome Non-members, but you pay $5 extra for each and every race entry. BCMCA events are Club-sanctioned events, providing Organizers with Liability Insurance and race support.
  2.       A Racing License is required for race entry regardless of membership status. It is purchased from CyclingBC, and comes in 2 options: The Citizen License for racers who participate in BCMCA sanctioned events, or Club Races without UCI(Union Cycliste Internationale) sanction. The full UCI Racing License is for racers who participate in any UCI-sanctioned events. You must determine which level of racing you need License for. Generally, all BCMCA and Club races require Citizen License. Single-event or Day Licenses are not available for any BCMCA- sanctioned races. The License gives you Personal Liability and Accident Insurance. Insurance details are available from CyclingBC.
  3.        Online Registrations and Purchase are available for both BCMCA Membership and all CyclingBC racing Licenses through CCN(see www.CCNbikes.com), which act as payment provider and registration database only. If you have any issues or problems with CCN links or features, please contact them directly. BCMCA does not handle the transaction process.
