This Is The Team
Real riders. Real dirt. From Bonelli's flowing berms to Marshall Canyon's climbs — this is where we train, together.
More Than A Team
Mountain biking is a rare kind of sport: you race as an individual, but you train, travel, and grow as a team. It's a family sport, a fitness sport, and a fun sport — all rolled into one.
SoCal League Racing
Compete in the SoCal High School Cycling League — six spring races on premier courses across Southern California.
Team Family
Ride with friends who become family. Group rides, team dinners, race-day tents — a community that shows up for each other.
Fitness For Life
Build endurance, strength, and confidence on the bike — habits that carry far past the finish line.
All Skill Levels
No experience necessary. Beginners are welcomed and mentored; advanced riders are pushed to grow. Your own mountain bike and helmet required.
Structured Season
Practices twice a week, weekend team rides, and a six-race spring season. Predictable, consistent, and family-friendly.
2027 Season Events
Registration, team meetings, and first practices in the fall — then five SoCal League races plus State Championships in Tehachapi. The league posts final dates and venues on the official race page ↗.
Practice Schedule
From December through the spring race season we practice on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. We have optional pre-season rides from October through December on Saturday mornings. We rotate through four local spots: Bonelli Regional Park, Marshall Canyon, and the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park.

How To Become A Claremont MTB Coach
