Bad Dog Racing is a small amateur team of cyclists, runners, and triathletes based in the Lake Norman Area of Charlotte, NC.
Born in a garage full of CompuTrainers over a cold winter in 2013, the team remains small and participates in events such as the Blood Sweat and Gears cycling events, the Boston Marathon, the NC Triathlon Series, the CMS Time Trial Series, and many other local events.
The name? Well, one of our team sponsors is Birkdale Animal Hospital of Huntersville, NC and the play on words was evident. There are a few other personal meanings behind the B.A.D. acronym, but all in all it’s just a fun name that represents our team well. In the end – the team is about having fun and pushing ourselves to live life fully across our roles as athletes, family members, working professionals, and community members.
Many thanks to Birkdale Animal Hospital, Anderson Smith & Wike PLLC, Big John’s Bike Repair, and Clifton Bikes for their continued sponsorship and support.
