North Penn MTB
Who?
North Penn MTB is a youth mountain bike team within the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Cycling League (PICL), under the National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA). We are open to all student athletes entering 6th through 12th grades. Riders of all skill levels are welcome. There are no benchwarmers - everyone rides!
What?
North Penn MTB uses mountain biking as the foundation for a unique experiential learning opportunity. Student athletes learn bike handling skills, basic maintenance, and trail stewardship in a fun and supportive environment. The team will practice two to three times a week from July to October, and riders may optionally participate in league races starting in September.
Where?
Practices will be held at a variety of parks around the North Penn area. We primarily meet at Valley Forge National Historical Park, and branch out to other parks in the surrounding area. We are fortunate to have so many trails in Eastern Pennsylvania and we try to use them all throughout the season.
