Why the Omnium

Six things your support does.

Sponsorship here isn't a logo on a banner. It pays for youth cycling, equal prize money and a weekend the whole community shows up for.

01

Your brand at the race

Two days and two very different races: classic road racing in the hills, then a free downtown criterium that families come to watch. KQED News covered the race in 2019.

02

Support the next generation

In 2026 the Omnium raised $28,610 for six East Bay NICA teams, funding equipment, coaching and race opportunities. Trek hosted the kids clinic.

03

Support women's racing

The women's and men's Pro/1/2 fields split the 2026 cash purse 50/50. Berkeley Omnium proceeds supported women's cycling through a donation to Women's On Track, hosted by Eclipse Racing.

04

Support collegiate racing

Collegiate racing joined the Berkeley Omnium for 2026, giving university teams a major regional stage.

05

Be part of the Berkeley cycling community

The Omnium is run by the Berkeley Bicycle Club, a volunteer-powered club formed in 1979, not a race company.

06

Create something racers remember

Expert Tree Service created the Berkeley Hills Road Race podium. It's now part of what the race looks like.

Only at Berkeley Hills

A one-of-a-kind podium.

The Berkeley Hills Road Race podium was created by Expert Tree Service. It gives the race a finish-line moment that looks like nowhere else, and it has become part of what the Berkeley Hills Road Race is.
