Our History

Former Head Coach Ken Mozek started the club in 2008.  Coach Ken, a long time cyclist, has always had a passion for mentoring youth, and the chance to mentor high school students through mountain biking was irresistible.  With 5 boys and 6 girls in the club and a few parent coaches, they trained and competed in the NorCal High School MTB League.  The club has grown since then to over 60 riders, one of the largest teams in the NorCal League.
