Finally, you should consider joining a local cycling club. You can also take part in local competitions that are organised on the occasion of periodic festivals or celebrations in your locality.
Complete your training formally
Many schools offer training in traditional (face-to-face) courses or in a sandwich course. There, with the guidance of experienced coaches and health workers, you will receive additional training to become a professional cyclist. Regular practice sessions are organised to familiarise you with the wheel with all the creativity that can force the admiration of your spectators. With hard work, after two years of hard work you can get your parchment that allows you to make a career.
Making a career in cycling and earning a living ?
Every country has a cycling federation with clubs.
