Led by certified coaches, teams and clubs generally meet twice a week at local trails from late Spring through Fall. Everybody rides - no try-outs and no bench! We teach skills, play games, and go for trail rides.

BRAVE enables the growth and friendships of female students and coaches within the cycling community. Our chapters meet for fun group rides and our single-day events are full of fun and learning.

On Adventure Days students participate with (or against) coaches! Teams of 4 navigate trails by bike and trek to discover checkpoints. We play games on and off the bike and ride with friends from around the state.
