I am part of a cycling team/club whatever you want to call it. We used to register with USA Cycling every year when people did primirly USA cycling races. Now, members do so many gravel and other unafiliated races that we haven’t seen any reason to register. The main benefit was that your team name was registered with USA cycling and printed on licences and results for USA Cycling races. The other “benefits” they list include this word salad…
