The Ride

HUB mentors and coaches guide new riders through a fun, supportive intro to mountain biking at Chickasaw Trace Park. No experience needed — just the ability to ride a bike on their own.

It's part of the Tennessee Interscholastic Cycling League's (TICL) Race #1 weekend, so riders also get a taste of the course and the team atmosphere — with no membership or obligation.

A perfect first try — especially for the brother or sister of a racer.

What to Bring

  • Bike — required

No bike or helmet? We have a small number of junior-sized loaner bikes and helmets — just note it on the sign-up form and we'll set one aside (first come, first served).
