You don&#x27;t have to pay it, but you won&#x27;t be racing again. As a former USA Cycling official, I&#x27;d occasionally fine riders for infractions (usually $20-50 payable to the youth rider fund). They didn&#x27;t have to pay it, as I had no enforcement authority outside of bike races. However, if I saw you next week and you hadn&#x27;t paid the fine, you won&#x27;t be at the start line. I couldn&#x27;t make you pay it, but I could prevent you from racing.
