Based in Bend, Oregon
CJC is for youth & juniors who love to ride bikes!
Our mountain bike camps, clubs and off-road teams provide young riders incredible opportunities to improve their skills, build fitness, and have fun riding with their peers and dedicated mentors.
We have established an effective pipeline for riders to follow as they increase their ability and set bigger goals. Whether that goal is to ride a new feature on a local trail or win a national championship event, our coaches work hard to prepare the riders and support their success.
My son really appreciates and values your coaching and his friendship with the kids on the team. We really appreciate that you have created this program and have worked hard to keep the kids riding.
Awesome Coaches
We are very proud of our 15+ diverse coaches, skills instructors and ride leaders who share their knowledge with compassion, empathy and enthusiasm.
My daughter is SO pumped to be riding with CJC. Kids need nature and experiences and these guys are supplying the best outlet for it, and as always create a FUN environment for these kids to build skills and have a blast.
