CBC Brasil Cycling Events & Federations Scraper

Scrape sanctioned cycling events and state federation directories from the Confederação Brasileira de Ciclismo (CBC), Brazil's national cycling governing body.

What does it do?

This actor crawls cbc.esp.br and returns two types of records:

• Events — CBC's full event history (thousands of records spanning past and upcoming events) including race name, discipline (MTB, BMX Racing, BMX Freestyle, estrada, pista, paraciclismo, etc.), date range, host city, state, and whether the event is CBC- or UCI-sanctioned.
• Federations — state-level Brazilian cycling federation contact details: president name, address, phone, and email. Temporarily unavailable — CBC has not yet published this directory on their redesigned website; scrapeMode: 'federations' currently returns no records. Use scrapeMode: 'events' in the meantime.

Use cases

• Talent scouts & race promoters — track Brazil's CBC-sanctioned events, past and upcoming, across road, MTB, BMX, and track disciplines.
• Sponsorship prospecting — identify events and federations to target for brand partnerships (energy drinks, component brands, cycling apparel).
• Cycling tourism operators — build itineraries around race calendar data.
• Sports data aggregators — feed CBC event data into Latin American sports schedules.

The federation sample above reflects the last period this data was published — see the note under Input for its current availability.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
scrapeMode	string	both	events — events only; federations — federations only; both — everything
maxItems	integer	—	Optional cap on total records returned

Notes

• The actor reads CBC's own events calendar and federations directory directly.
• Event discipline reflects CBC's own category (MTB, BMX Racing, BMX Freestyle, estrada, pista, paraciclismo, etc.); cbcSanctioned distinguishes CBC's own calendar from UCI-sanctioned international events also listed on the site.
• Coverage spans CBC's full published event history, not just upcoming events — use maxItems and re-run with scrapeMode: 'events' to page through it.
• Federation records are temporarily unavailable. CBC redesigned their website and has not yet re-published the state federations directory; scrapeMode: 'federations' (and the federations half of 'both') currently returns 0 records rather than failing the run. This is a gap on CBC's own site, not something this actor's filters caused — check back later, or use scrapeMode: 'events' for full functionality now.
