ALL IN racing is an initiative within competitive cycling increasing visibility and inclusion for LGBT+ riders and which aims to become a standard for championing diversity at all levels of the sport.
We work with brands, organisations, events, teams and individuals to educate and inform, providing people with the tools and understanding to be good allies and develop authentically inclusive environments.
We work with groups in a range of ways providing individual consulting, written resources, workshops and keynote speaker engagements. To learn more get in touch below.

Keep Riding - Josh Jones
We're thrilled to have supported the 2022 UCI international Andover Supercross cyclocross races showing that inclusion helps all levels of cycling grow!
The event was directly fund by our wonderful community of LGBT+ people and allies through earlier sales of our awesome Rainbow Socks. Check out posts from the race on Instagram.
#RainbowLaces
Our first event with rainbow socks at Clanfield Cross 2021 was a huge success and we're thrilled with the super high participation in the men's and women's elite races. Check out our highlights on Instagram (@all.in.racing) for all the great posts people have shared from the event and from getting their own pair of rainbow socks.

Now is the perfect time to get involved - we can all have an input and can shape the initiative together. Every voice deserves to be heard.
If you're LGBT+ and have experiences to share (good and bad) and thoughts on what you'd like to see to make the sport more inclusive, I want to hear from you!
If you're an ally or represent a team and you recognise the challenges and want to be part of the conversation about what improvements we can make, I want to hear from you!
If you represent a company, large or small, and want to be part of the conversation about engaging meaningfully with the LGBT+ community, I want to hear from you!

About me:
I’m Josh, an amateur racer based in Cambridge, UK. I’ve been cycling for ten years and earned an Elite British Cycling road racing licence before switching to focus on cyclocross where I hold a modest world ranking. I've also added some MTB to the mix since 2019.
Racing has given me a lot of great experiences, but these have often been set in a culture that did not feel particularly inclusive. The ALL IN racing initiative has sprung from my drive to help improve the status quo and make the sport more welcoming to people like me, whilst also generating new value for the industry and amateur and semi-professional teams.
