Our Mission
Our mountain bike camps, clubs and race teams provide young riders incredible opportunities to improve their skills, build fitness and have fun riding with their peers. We excel at connecting junior cyclists who are eager to improve with professional coaches & mentors who are ready to teach and inspire.
Within this positive team environment, our riders develop as individual athletes, teammates & friends.

Our Coaches
We are very proud of our staff, who love to ride and share their knowledge. Leaders are certified through PMBIA; and we require SafeSport, 1st Aid and our own trainings to ensure our riders receive the most professional attention while in our care.

Cog Kids
After school and Summer Camps for our youngest riders
For young riders on pedal bikes; these are short-duration after school sessions and summer camps to build skill & gain experience on the trail with a coach. CJC teen riders love to assist the adult coaches with the summer sessions!

Elementary Club
Clinics & group rides for beginner to intermediate riders in grades 2 – 5
Single day clinics & multi-week after school programs each spring and fall. Keep your rider progressing over the summer with an appropriate 4-day Skills Camp.
As riders gain experience with us they may be ready to join our Youth All Mountain Team, or they will age-up into Cascadia Club for grades 6 – 12.
My daughter had the best time in the mountain bike skills class yesterday. She came home absolutely beaming and had so much to tell us. The coaches were incredible and she had a fabulous time.

Youth All Mountain Team
Regular team practice for experienced intermediate riders in grades 4 & 5
The Youth All Mountain Team are experienced riders who started riding very young and are motivated to progress their skills & fitness on bigger terrain (both uphill and downhill). Enrollment is for a longer season than Elementary Club and may offer optional weekend or other activities.
These riders are not yet old enough to fully differentiate between XC / Enduro or other disciplines — our skills progressions apply equally. As riders develop their maturity, experience or age-out of this group, coaches will help them progress to either the Cascadia Club, XC Race Team or Enduro Race Team.

Summer Camps

- CJC Team Only Oakridge Training Camp for Enduro (June)

Cascadia Club
Skills-based recreational rides for grades 6 – 12
For middle & high school students who love riding and progressing their skills and riding big days on the bike. This group focuses more on skills and personal development than providing a focus on competitions or training for events.
Every ride is about having fun, learning from the coaches & each other while applying your best effort to improve and explore.
Riders may stay in Club through high school or move to the race teams.
We took our kids on a ride today, and it was fantastic. Not only are their skills awesome, they are beautiful riders and a ton of fun to be with on the trails. Thanks for the work that you and the Cascadia staff are doing, it really shows!

XC Race Team

Year-round coaching for strength, fitness and xc skills within the structure of a team. These riders want to compete and enjoy learning everything they can about racing XC. Cross-over to the Enduro Race & Cyclocross Teams is encouraged.

Enduro Race Team
Enduro / gravity junior mountain bike team
Year-round coaching for strength and fitness with a focus on the skills needed for enduro or other gravity-focused riding & racing all within the structure of a team.

Cross-over to the XC & Cyclocross Teams is encouraged.

Cyclocross Race Team
