MT Alpha: Mission Statement

MT Alpha cycling team was created to bring women together to encourage and support each other while testing our limits and exceeding our goals. We are dedicated to promoting the beauty and freedom of being a woman on a bike. Regardless of your skill level, MT Alpha offers a haven for women to support each other and feel confident in a typically male dominated sport. That being said, the goal of this team is to develop into the region’s first premier women’s mountain bike team. We are open to women who are searching for encouragement to be the best of their ability; testing their own limits and capabilities while proving they are better than they thought they were.

MT Alpha is an organization committed to bike awareness, women in the sport of mountain biking racing, and community outreach. Through trail maintenance, women/youth skills clinics, and event volunteering and racing, we support the growth and development of mountain biking in our community. Through these efforts we inevitably bring women together and form life long friendships while rippin’ trail.

To be an MT Alpha, you must be a woman committed to giving back to your community and the sport of cycling. To meet this requirement, we ask our racers to participate in at least two local mountain biking events by either racing or volunteering their time. Also, they must take part in at least one trail maintenance day per year. Along with these requirements, we encourage everyone to wear your brain bucket, pick up any debris found on our trails, and encourage girls of all ages to get out on the trails and try something new. MT Alpha supports our sponsors, local business owners, who have made a commitment to supporting us.
