Confederación Panamericana de Ciclismo
The national federations of the UCI form confederations by continent. In the Americas, this body is the Confederación Panamericana de Ciclismo (the Pan American Cycling Confederation), also shortened to COPACI.[1] COPACI was founded in 1922 in Montevideo and is presently headquartered in Havana.[2]
COPACI serves as the sponsor of the annual Pan American Road and Track Championships and a key organisation for the UCI America Tour.

As of June 2021, COPACI consists of 44 full member federations and 5 associate member federations.[3] One of its members, the Mexican Cycling Federation, is currently suspended from the UCI.[4]
