The Saint Vrain High School Mountain Bike Team holds weekly practices from the start of the season (August 2nd, 2022) through approximately the end of October.

During each practice, the coaches teach riding skills, bike maintenance, bike safety, trail etiquette, sportsmanship, nutrition, race preparation & strategy. The coaches’ goal for the team is to have fun in a safe and supportive environment.

We use TeamSnap to manage practice times –more information on TeamSnap

In addition, at the beginning of the year, all riders will be required to pass a bike safety check and go through a skills assessment and a timed event to place them within an appropriate riding group for their skill level and ability.

Please ensure that you are registered for the team before the first practice.

Once we have student-athletes grouped into the appropriate ride groups, we use TeamSnap to manage and maintain the locations and the times for each group. Please ensure you or your student have the app installed on their phone.

Practice Schedule – FIRST PRACTICE – Aug. 2nd 2022

We ride at various locations within Longmont, Boulder, Lyons and Erie. Because of the teams size, it’s important that we ride in small, efficient, and compact groups to limit the impact to not only the trails but also on other trail users.

Weekly Practice Days

We practice on Tuesday and Thursday evenings with optional practices happening on Wednesdays (practices last approximately 2 hours and start at 6:00 pm early in the season and progressively get early up to about 4:30 pm with the time change and loss of light at the end of the day).

This is preliminary and may change due to coaching needs or the size of the team.

Please see our Practice Guidelines for more on what to expect and be prepared for at practices

TeamSnap Information

We utilize Team Snap for managing the calendar and intra-team communications during the season.

Please ensure that your student-athlete AND at least one parent have the app downloaded onto their phone to ensure you are getting the latest updates from the team.
