If you missed last nights webinar, the same class is being offered tonight by a different instructor. I would encourage you to register for this one webinar over any other. This webinar covers the basics of starting a high school mountain bike team. It gives some foundational principals to create a successful youth centered environment and will help you avoid some pitfalls in the first year. www.nationalmtb.org/nica-webinars/

Registered for the Leaders' Summit!
Well
it's official, I'm now registered for the Utah High School Cycling
League's - Leaders' Summit at the end of April. I'll go and "rough it"
at Utah's Olympic Village for a few days. I'll possess that "Head
Coaches License" I've spoken about to many of the followers.
Then I'm thinking of a stop at Gooseberry Mesa on the way back, I've
been meaning to ride a section called "God's Skate Park". Then I'll be
bringing back some great information from this summit. So I can't wait
to see many others get to go to a conference like this one; get involved
and remain involved! Stay tuned, more to come!

To future sucess and partnerships!
Over the last two days my family and I have visited and spoke with bike shop owners all over the Las Vegas Valley. I am so impressed with the vision and outreach work that is being done. I know that with their hard work the future of Las Vegas cycling is in great hands. Please go out and support our local shops. There are quite a few upcoming bicycle demo days, what better way to find out if you are going to love a new bike than to give the bike a test ride!

Introduction
This blog has been created to help
spread the word, educate and begin the development process for a High
School Mountain Bike Program in Nevada. I will keep this blog
site up to date with the latest information about things like: Teams
that are developing and their results from races, New Sponsors (we
need them!), and Key events. I also would like to see communication
on who would like to get involved and I welcome questions on how to
get involved and the team standup process.
This is going to take a couple of years
and some hard working volunteers and sponsors to launch a successful
program here in Nevada, but our Nevada Youth deserve something great.
My name is Chris and for more
information on the process or other question you can also e-mail or
call me:
