MT Alpha Race Team 2026

The MT Alpha Race Team is open to riders of all bike disciplines: mountain, gravel, road, cyclocross, enduro, and anyone excited about pinning on a number. Our goal is to create a supportive, inclusive environment where women and non-binary riders can challenge themselves, grow their skills, and show up confidently on start lines across the region.

Whether it’s your first race season or your fifteenth, you belong here.

 
What We Ask From Race Team Members
To keep our community strong, connected, and moving forward together, team members commit to:

1. Racing a minimum of five race days throughout the season (any discipline)
2. Volunteering at least twice during the year
3. One of these volunteer events will likely be a local music event fundraiser (details coming soon)
4. Maintaining at least a Basic MT Alpha membership

These commitments help us build visibility in the community, support the club’s programming, and ensure we can continue empowering riders of all levels.

What Race Team Members Receive
As part of the MT Alpha Race Team, you’ll enjoy a variety of perks designed to support your training, racing, and community involvement:

• Free or discounted team jersey
• Team support at key races (based on the race team schedule)
• $200 off a bike fit with Ascend Sports Medicine during the winter months
• Monthly team rides (1 minimum during the season April - September), plus skills and training opportunities

Why Join the Race Team?
Beyond the perks, the MT Alpha Race Team is about showing up for yourself and for each other. We’re here to make racing more accessible, more fun, and more welcoming — because the more representation we have at start lines, the more the cycling community grows and changes for the better.

If you’re ready to ride up to a start line, support your teammates, and help shape the next generation of riders, we’d love to have you on the team.
