What’s in the Name?
Mountain biking is about more than just riding—it’s about overcoming challenges. Roots, log overs, steep hills, and mud teach us perseverance and build confidence, both on and off the trail. Every rider remembers their first time conquering a tricky root or tackling a new skill. Muddy freckles? They’re just proof of a great ride!
Our Mission
At ROOTZ, our Roll Models do more than teach skills—they support riders’ social and emotional well-being. We promote a growth mindset, encourage lifelong learning, and foster a safe, joyful community where everyone can thrive. Our mission? To get more girls on bikes while welcoming boys to ride with us too!
🚵 Together, we empower one another.
🚵 We take risks, fall down, and get back up.
🚵 We ride, we learn, and we grow.
