Our programs continue to grow and diversify year after year, to accommodate a wide range of skill levels and ages. Our favorite home base for XC (cross-country) mountain biking, Park Road Park located in the heart of South Charlotte, NC, next door to the 17 miles of the Back Yard Trails, Marion Diehl, and Park Rd Park trail systems! We may even have a BRAND NEW TRAIL to ride Summer of 2026! (shhhhh, that’s a secret, though). The trails offered in this area are highly diverse and offers us the perfect spot to work on many different skills. While riding XC trails, there is PLENTY of opportunity to work on many skills that directly translate to other disciplines of riding and racing.
Our staff of 7 certified, professional adult coaches is led by Shawn Gentry who has thousands of hours of experience working with over 1,250 young riders like yours to help them grow not only their technical skill, but also their love for the sport!
