Use cases

• Scout databases — identify race calendars and event organisers for specific disciplines or departments
• Cycling tourism operators — find which departments host events in peak season
• Sponsorship prospecting — contact departmental ligas directly using the provided email and phone data
• Sports analytics — build a structured dataset of Colombia's domestic cycling ecosystem

Notes

• Calendar pages link to PDF schedules rather than HTML tables. Race-level detail (individual event dates, cities) requires opening the linked PDF.
• The federation updates calendar pages during the season; re-running the actor captures the latest PDF version.
• Email addresses are Cloudflare-obfuscated on the source page; this actor decodes them automatically.
