Below is more information on the 2021 Lehigh Valley Mountain Bike Season for interested middle school and high school students throughout the Lehigh Valley. We are a co-ed program welcoming riders of all experiences levels and are excited to participate again in the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Cycling League for the 2021 Lehigh Valley Mountain Bike season.

As we move towards a new normal we are excited to see new kids on bikes and hopefully can engage some new athletes to find the lifelong love for riding bikes through mountain biking for the 2021 Lehigh Valley Mountain Bike Season. Adventure programs will be the ideal way to introduce new riders and seasoned athletes will still be able to participate in a few smaller league wide events through time trial races and local dirt scrimmages.

Plans are evolving, but the important thing is that we get kids out on bikes! Here is what we know:

• Team and season registration opens April 1st
• For new riders we encourage you to come to a Try-It Ride!
• Practices will begin around in July, 3 times per week
• The season will include an increased emphasis on regional races called “local dirts”. We held a successful local dirt ride at Jordan Creek Park in Allentown in the fall of 2020
• The Pennsylvania Interscholastic Cycling League will hold at least four fall races and several events starting in July of 2021. Schedule details can be found here.

2021 will see more Local Dirt events not far from the Lehigh Valley

We also encourage parent involvement as coaches. Feel free to contact us for more information on how you can become a level 1 coach. This is a great way to get to know the team, league, and spend more time outdoors with your kids during the 2021 Lehigh Valley Mountain Bike Season. The Coach licensing program includes training.

• Pennsylvania Interscholastic Cycling League fee: $199 to cover administration costs (will be paid in pitzone directly to the league, $75 out of this fee per athlete cover NICA fees and insurance costs)
• Lehigh Valley Composite Team fee: $100 (check or Paypal paid around time of first practice)
• Team Jersey: $60
• Event fees for larger events at Granite, or Fair Hill: approximately $30
• Scholarship information can be found here.

Please share this with anyone who might be interested in joining the team this season.
