BIKE SQUADS

Ride. Explore. Grow.

Bike Squads get 2nd - 8th graders out on the trails to build confidence, skills, and a lifelong love of mountain biking. Riders are grouped by age and ability to ensure fun, challenge, and growth, whether they’re just starting out or ready for more advanced adventures.

SUMMER BIKE SQUAD

Ride with purpose this summer! Mountain Bike Squad for 2nd-8th graders builds confidence, skills, and fitness through fun trail rides- all leading up to the kids-only Pedal the Pigeon event on 8/15/2026. Perfect for beginners and experienced riders alike.

​

Throughout the program, riders will focus on building their confidence, skills, and fitness through fun, adventure-filled trail rides in a supportive environment. Whether your child is new to mountain biking or already loves the trails, they’ll develop skills and fitness while having an awesome time outdoors.
