WHAT:

The Skyridge Mountain Bike Team is a competitive cycling team for high school students.  We are not a recreational team. We train and support student-athletes to participate and compete in five races sponsored by the Utah High School Cycling League held in the fall. 

Mountain biking is a challenging endurance sport. Expect it to be difficult but also rewarding and fun!  Our team practices are divided into strength and skill based groups to appropriately challenge each rider and provide coaching in small groups.

WHO:

YOU! Everyone participates - girls and boys!

There are no tryouts, there is no bench... everyone races!

​​If you attend Skyridge High School and agree to the team rules, you can participate! 

If you are going into 7th or 8th grade at Lehi Junior, ​check out the tab "Jr. High Team".

WHEN:

Picture
We kick off the season with a youth and parent meeting in April to provide information and answer questions.
​
The Calendar has an outline of our season but TeamSnap is an app we use for all practice and race communications. Student-athletes and parents must use the app! 

We practice several times per week at various locations including but not limited to Lambert Park (Alpine), Corner Canyon (Draper), Eagle Mountain, Herriman, Pleasant Grove, and American Fork Canyon. Riders are expected to attend all scheduled practices and show dedicated effort. We expect commitment, responsibility, and respect from our riders and parents. We can't do this without parent volunteers (lots of opportunities to help). If a student-athlete has another commitment that precludes them from attending practice, other makeup arrangements can be made in advance with a coach. However, this is an exception rather than a rule.  

WHAT DO I NEED?:

  • A "Can Do" attitude!
  • Cross Country Mountain bike (maintained/functioning)
  • Safety Equipment (Helmet, Gloves, Eye protection)
  • Bike Maintenance Supplies (tubes, hand pump, patch kit, tire levers)

 If you don't have these things discounts are available at the local Bike Shops.

Thank you to our 2018 sponsors!!!
