This team is a one-of-a-kind team that will ride bikes on trails together and enter a handful of bike race events to put our skills to the test. This team is open to any and all boys and girls of all ages, Kindergarten to 6th grade – and older, who are interested in trail riding as a team with the focus on fun! Although GBPark is located in on Granby's property, this team welcomes any and all kids from any school - so invite your friends too!
GBPark Race Team has been formed to accomplish a handful of goals:
- Introduce kids to trail riding, local trail systems, and a love for the outdoors and nature.
- Minimize the fear of participating in a “race” event such as a MTB Race. (It took me many years to overcome my own fears to enter my first MTB race, only to find that these events are non-threatening, welcoming, and extremely fun!)
- Form team camaraderie among group members (and family members) with group rides, high fives, celebrating personal accomplishments, Race Day TrailGates, and exercising together with an emphasis on FUN!
- Provide a a quality team experience with a safe environment. We believe strongly in teaching and learning, not just riding. We have developed a coaching staff that has completed a Coaches Skills Clinic along with completing a background check.
