Roll with Us!
The Stillwater MTB is a cycling team that uses training and racing to develop riders, create camaraderie, and builde life long skills within a competitive sporting environment. Our team is made up of 6th-12th graders.
Founded in 2013 with just 26 student athletes, we are now over 90 strong with seven state championships under our belt. We compete against other teams in Minnesota under the rules of the Minnesota Cycling Association, known as MCA. We balance competition with the aspects of a club to keep this sport fun. We want the camaraderie and friendships developed around riding to last a lifetime.
Mountain Biking is a fall sport with races during the months of August - October. Training starts each July (2-3 days a week), with regular after school practices (Tu, We, Th) starting once the school year starts.
Summer Schedule
Starting in July we practice at various trails in the east metro area. Days are yet to be assigned for 2026, but we will have practice 2 days per week, with an advanced group riding a 3rd day. More details will be available later this spring.
School Year Weekly Schedule
Monday
Monday is tune-up, maintenance, and skills with fun day at the bike shed. We may also use Mondays for classroom time to cover riding rules, etc. Monday is not a required day, but the coaches do expect the bikes to be working and riders building skill. Monday morning will typically be a drop-off option for bikes at the shed.
Tuesday-Thursday
4:00 pm -6:00 pm workout. Riders begin by having a snack as soon as the bell rings in school. Then they get changed and meet at the bike shed. Activity buses bring riders from the Middle Schools before we head out. Make sure your attendance has been taken before leaving the shed.
Friday
No formal practice. Depending on the weekend schedule, coaches's may advise a rest day or encourage students to go on a ride on their own.
Saturday
Race day for our middle school riders. If it is not a race weekend, we may meet at a metro area bike park from 9:00 am to 11:00 am.
Sunday
Race day for our high school riders. If there is no scheduled race, you'll have the day off. Sunday evenings will typically be a drop-off option for bikes at the shed.
