Our Try-It Ride gives prospective riders in grades 5–12 a chance to meet our athletes and coaches, learn some basic mountain bike skills, hit the trails, and experience what being a Veloraptor is all about.

Beginners are welcome, racing is not required, and everyone rides. Parents interested in coaching are encouraged to come learn more too!

Before anyone rides

Every youth rider or prospective adult coach must complete the applicable NICA waiver and attest to it here before check-in. NJ allows the guest waiver for one ride. Non-riding parents may observe; they do not count toward riding capacity and do not need riding equipment.

Before riding, every rider needs a suitable bike and helmet, gloves, eye protection, closed-toe shoes and water. At Huckwagon events, coaches review youth bike/helmet requests and arrange safe trials; arriving without a bike is welcome, but does not guarantee a loaner for the entire ride.
