Weekly Update 1/26/2026
Hello Athletes, Coaches and Families!
We had SUCH great rides at Vail we are working on scheduling another practice
up there! Strong effort from all athletes with many riding these trails for the first
time. Punchy climbs, spicy corners, rollercoaster-like single track and big berms
keep things exciting!
THANK you to parent volunteer Cathie for setting up the food, and parent LiLoa,
for bringing the aloha spirit with the amazing Hawaiian food and kalua pork tacos!
Thanks to coaches Doug, Leland, and Erik for running the BBQ and keeping our
hungry athletes fed!
Team Jerseys should arrive in the next week to ten days and will be distributed at
practice!
Athletes who are racing in the SoCal League will be working on race starts and
strategy for the next couple of weeks. Our first team race (for the athletes who
are registered through the SoCal League) will be the weekend of February 6-7 at
Lake Perris. Details on Team Snap. If you are not racing but want to come cheer
on teammates, you are welcome and we’d love to have you!
