The most common word you hear amongst everyone involved with our team is family. And that’s what this sport and team creates for the riders, coaches and parents. No matter your skill level and abilities, everyone participates and is an active part of our team. And seeing the transformation in their self development on and off the bike is a rewarding experience. We’re excited to grow our family and partner with Doug and the team at Because Coffee to launch the “Nightrider Blend” to help us get More Kids on Bikes!

The Dawson County Mountain Bike Team is more than a team, it’s a group of friends, a family, that's formed through mountain biking. The team teaches riders like myself more than just mountain biking, it teaches leadership, initiative, teamwork, and many more useful life skills. We were finally able to get enough people to form a Dawson county team this year and I am very grateful to be a part of the team this year.

Being a coach for these young riders is very rewarding. We get the opportunity to see them grow from very timid and scared to ride, to being confident in their abilities and able to tackle obstacles on the trails that some adults still struggle with. This confidence is carried into their daily lives and we love seeing their personalities grow through the sport of mountain biking.
