Meet Our Team
The Veloraptors are a youth mountain bike team for riders in grades 5–12 from across the Somerset Hills region and surrounding towns, including Basking Ridge, Bernardsville, Bedminster, Far Hills, Peapack-Gladstone, Warren, Watchung, Somerville, Bridgewater, and nearby communities.
Our team includes boys and girls of all abilities from riders learning their first trail skills to experienced racers competing in the NJ NICA league. With supportive coaches and a strong team culture, every rider has the opportunity to grow in skill, confidence, and friendship on and off the bike.
