Onion River Outdoors is proud to sponsor and provide coaching assistance to our local Vermont Youth Cycling Team, the Central Vermont Trailblazers!
This team is open and welcoming to all 5th through 12th graders in the greater Montpelier area, no matter their riding level, financial situation, or competitive drive. Interspersed with fun winter gatherings and a few strength and endurance training opportunities at Green Mountain Community Fitness, weekly practices run from spring trail opening all the way through the summer and into the fall race season, where the team focuses on camaraderie, sportsmanship, and skill building. Fall VTYC enduro and XC format races are optional for team members, but for those looking to toe the line and advance their fitness and racing abilities, these events are extremely well organized and provide a supportive team atmosphere at which individual riders can test their skills.
We look forward to continuing our support and contributions to Central Vermont youth mountain biking for years to come with the understanding that a strong riding community in turn creates a fun place to live and work and a vibrant downtown business and recreation community!
