Norte Race Team
supported by
Brick Wheels
We invite riders of all skill levels and abilities in 4th - 12th grade to join our team for 2024. Previous race experience is not required. We will help riders set personal goals, gain confidence, and have plenty of fun along the way.
The Norte Race Team is supported by Brick Wheels and the generous donations of people like you!
Competition Is a Learning Process
Just like team sports, bike racing offers incredible life lessons. For riders interested in tackling a full racing calendar and making additional training commitments, the Norte Race Team supported by Brick Wheels is a chance to join a team of riders taking their racing up a notch. The Race Team isn’t about winning and losing. It’s about challenging yourself, meeting commitments, and being part of a squad of like-minded individuals for a full season.
To join the team, simply fill out this Team Commitment Form and email to jill@norteyouthcycling.org.
