December Update
As another season draws to a close we would like to thank all of those that have helped us throughout the year. Without the support from each other, our friends and families and especially our sponsors none of this would have been possible. That being said, there are races throughout the winter, new riders to recruit and potential sponsors to be pursued. If you’re interested in racing with us or know someone that might be, let us know. Likewise, if you’re interested in associating your product with the team, feel free to contact us about a potential sponsorship. As events for the upcoming season are finalized they will posted on the site, along with any other nonsense we feel like sharing. If you have any comments or suggestions, they are always welcome.
Race For Everyone
The 2nd Annual Race For Everyone was a success. The team organizes this event to raise money for Kids On The Move, a local charity. We had a great showing this year and introduced a few new people to mountain bike racing.
Season Recap
The team had another great season, we had racers on the podium at every event. Below is a link to the ICUP results if you're interested in how we did as a team or individuals.
About Us
The Mad Dog Cycles Race team was organized in 2002 to create a opportunity for local riders to ride together and support one another in their racing. The team quickly turned into a tight community of riders who not only race, but now engage in other community activities such as trail maintenance days and free guided rides for the community.
The Team won the points competition in the Intermountain Cup Race Series for 3 consecutive years ('02-'04). Although still one of the top three teams in the circuit, our group has limited it's elite rider slots and is now encouraging rookie and support riders to join the team and experience racing. The team also spends time on our community events.
For the last two years we have organized and promoted the 'Race for Everyone'. Which focuses on the local community and encourage families and kids to experience mountain bike racing. All proceeds benefit Kids on the Move, an educational and developmental facility for low income children 0-3 years old who have developmental disabilities.
Additionally many of our riders train for and race in various endurance events during the season, including: 24 Hours of Moab, 24 Hours of Old Pueblo, 12 Hours of Temecula, Leadville Trail 100, Iron Horse Classic, LOTOJA and others.
The team is growing in experience and influence each year and this year has also been invited to put three of it's riders on the regional Subaru Gary Fisher team.
Whether racing, training or working on the trails the team is more than just a group of mountain bike racers, but a microcosm of what a community can be. We encourage, coach, motivate one another to be our best and to serve others. You are invited to join us.
Team Cause:
Promote the sport of Mountain Biking in the community
Serve the community through trail building, guides rides and other activities
Support a local charity
Build team camaraderie
Have fun, stay fit and ride the trails
Team Objectives:
Compete in the Intermountain Cup and other local and regional races
Organize and run a local mountain bike race to benefit a local charity and encourage families and kids to try mountain bike racing
Organize and guide monthly community rides
