Get To Know The Team
The Team is open to any youth willing to work hard, set goals, and be respectful of their teammates, coaches and nature. The Team welcomes entry level bike riders that are excited to learn about the sport and those who have already fallen in love and want to see where the sport can take them. This season we helped riders enjoy their first races, and we also competed on the National level with several riders enjoying time in Europe over the summer.
Open Practices
Thursdays | August through November
Team typically practices at Himmel Park on Thursdays after school, from the start of the school year in August, through the end of the fall race season around Thanksgiving.
Riders interested in trying out the team are encouraged to contact our staff and coaches to arrange to join a Thursday practice to see what we’re all about.
Please know, this is not a performance evaluation - riders are not judged on their physical capacity. Rather, we are looking for riders who are engaged, coachable, and interested in exploring their potential. When those elements are present, building your capacity is simply a matter of showing up and doing the work.
Prospective riders will typically attend several open practices to get a sense of the team. If riders and coaches feel that there is a good fit, your rider will receive an invitation to join the team.
Winter & Spring
By the end of the Fall race season, riders are training at a high level and it can be difficult for new riders to catch up. Riders wishing to join us for the Spring season will need to demonstrate that they are able to ride with one of our groups of riders.
Interested riders are encouraged to set up a meeting with the Head Coach or to sign up for our next prospective rider opportunity: Beyond Summer Mountain Bike Camp.

Summer Mountain Bike Camp
Explore Tucson Trails With Adult Coaches & Youth Riders
Tucson is a nationally known destination for mountain biking, and a wide variety of trails are accessible within a 1 hour drive of the team clubhouse.
Summer Mountain Bike Camp is designed aimed at all levels of riders, from novices to more experienced road and mountain bike riders. Riders will visit a new trail each day with the support of adult coaches and youth riders from the team who will provide guidance, support and encouragement tailored to each rider.
We are finalizing plans for next summer, but prospective Summer Bike Camp Hours are weekly sessions that run from 8am - 1pm, Monday through Friday. We plan to offer several consecutive week-long sessions in early June.
Summer Mountain Bike Camp also serves as a great opportunity to explore what training with the team is like, and can be a great point for new riders to join the team.
