If you are with the age group of 13-18 and have an interest in cycling, join the PBC Junior Development Team. Have fun learning bike handling skills, the tactics of bike racing, camaraderie with your fellow club members, and experience the thrill of racing your bike. We will meet every Tuesday evening (weather permitting) at 5:00PM behind the Washington Square. This will be a no drop ride (approximately 25-30 miles). The club will be providing coaching/mentoring for the individuals during the training rides and during race preparation. Parents are welcome to ride along on the no drop ride. We will attempt to participate in three to four races throughout the season (March – September). An annual USA cycling license will be required if you desire to race more than one race or a 1 day license depending upon your goals. The team focus will be on developing a strong work ethic to achieve the goals you set for yourself.
