Student athletes in grades 5 through 12 can join the team.
Absolutely! You will have to sign a one-time waiver so you can join us on a team practice ride (kids and potential coaches are welcome).
YES ! ! ! ! The league is looking to grow our female shredders out there, and runs the GRiT programme specifically to welcome female riders.
No. We do, however, ask that your child can confidently ride a bicycle.
Absolutely not! Some of our student athletes love racing, while others enjoy the exercise with friends or plain old fun that comes with riding. Our goal is getting more kids riding bikes and sharing the thrill of mountain biking.
Yes, you will need your own mountain bike. We do have team loaner bikes for short-term use, and the league provides some long-term loaner bikes for eligible riders.
A good rule of thumb: if a bike shop sold you a mountain bike, you're likely good to go. If it was purchased from a big box store, it may not be safe for riding on trails and you should check with a coach.
Preseason starts in October. This is a great time to try riding with the team. Our regular season runs from December to June and you may register anytime during the season.
Throughout the coldest months, we try to get in one ride per weekend, weather permitting. Once we change the clocks in the Spring, our season ramps up and we have two weeknight practices in addition to a weekend ride.
We realize kids are busy and have other commitments. But we're flexible. All we ask is that your child makes it to practice when possible.
The majority of our practices are at Lewis Morris and Dickerson Mine. On weekends, we frequently ride at other local parks.
Racing season starts at the end of March and runs through June. We participate in 5 races that are spread out around New Jersey.
Tell us about your rider on our contact page and we'll be in touch with the sign-up link and answers to any questions you have.
