Wheat Ridge Mountain Bike Team
Join the fastest-growing co-ed high school sport in Colorado! The Wheat Ridge Mountain Bike Team welcomes any 8th through 12th grader, from complete beginners to experienced racers. All you need is a working mountain bike, a helmet, and a willingness to have fun.
We’re part of a combined LHS/WRHS program with student-athletes from as many as six area high schools. We practice and ride together as one team, riding public trails throughout the Front Range twice a week to build skills, confidence, and community.
Practices: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:00–7:00 PM, July 7 thru October 15 on Jefferson County public trails.
Racing: Optional competitive racing begins in late August through the Colorado League, a 501(c)(3) youth development nonprofit. Mountain biking is a recognized club at WRHS, and racers can earn an athletic letter. Below is our Yampa division race schedule for the 2026 season:
- Race 1 – Frisco Bay Invitational — Frisco, CO — Saturday, August 29, 2026
- Race 2 – Showdown in the Boat — Steamboat Springs, CO — Sunday, September 13, 2026
- Race 3 – Haymaker Classic — Eagle, CO — Saturday, September 26, 2026
- Race 4 – Royal Gorge Rumble — Cañon City, CO — Sunday, October 11, 2026
- State Championship — Glenwood Springs, CO — October 24–25, 2026
Whether you’re chasing podiums or just want to explore new trails with friends, there’s a place for you on the team.
