It is with a heavy heart to announce the passing of long time USA Cycling race official Mike Hardaway. Mike had a heart attack at his home as he prepared to come to moto officiate Regalado Road Race on Friday, and was rushed to the hospital where he passed away today with family in attendance. Mike has touched many of us in the officiating and NCNCA Community, as well as many racers with his mentorship and knowledge of competitive cycling. He has served many years on the NCNCA Official’s Committee and was an experienced Motor Referee and Chief Referee, working both local and national events. Mike also served on the NCNCA Board for many years. In his professional life he was a Marine fighter pilot, flying the F4 Phantom, an engineer, an attorney, and other roles too numerous to mention. Thank you Mike for your dedication to the NCNCA and to the love of bike racing.

Feel free to leave your condolences and stories of Mike on our website, Facebook or Instagram Accounts.
