“Harpeth Youth Cycling has provided an irreplaceable opportunity for my 7th grade son. Since he attends a small private school, he doesn’t have many friends with a similar interest in mountain biking, and the school could never provide a team. Harpeth Youth provides all of these – friends with whom he can share his interests, opportunities to build skills and to test them in races, and, most importantly, coaches and parents that encourage, support, and assist in all aspects of running a competitive team. The camaraderie and friendly competitive spirit instills confidence in my son that positively influence other aspects of his life.”

“Harpeth Youth has provided us with healthy bodies, as well as friends and a community of wonderful people to ride bikes with”

“HYCC has been beneficial to both my middle school and high school sons. Their involvement in the HYCC has helped them grow confidence and proficiency as off-road cyclists while pursuing a healthy active lifestyle. But probably the biggest benefit has been the opportunity to develop lasting friendships with other young athletes with similar interests, which makes it fun.”

“The opportunity to race with Harpeth Youth Cycling has been a great way for Matthew to connect with other young cyclists. Being on the team has encouraged leadership and camaraderie, and exposed Matthew to new riding opportunities and extra riding instruction from coaches with a broad experience background. At the races, he knows he has the support he needs to be his best from other riders and the parent volunteers.”
