Supporting the future of cycling

Youth Cycling Programs

Round Trip Bike Shop has always been at the center of community involvement. This naturally carries over into working with the community youth. Some of which have never heard of "Gravel Riding" or "Mountain Biking". We passionately believe that sharing the joys and bniffits of cycling with todays children will only have positive effect in those kid's lives. We are proud to have started what has become on of the largest and single best shop supported youth programs in Arizona. It's so successful, we need the collaboration of other like minded shops to keep up with the critical mass that has created a tremendous opportunity for kids to gain exposure to all facets of cycling.

Casa Grande INTERSCHOLASTIC CYCLING TEAM

From the very beginning we have been actively involved in giving youth the opportunity to experience cycling and all the benefits of this amazing sport. In 2012, we caught wind of an organized High School cycling league coming to AZ. Seeing the value of getting more kids on bikes we organized the first Mountain Bike team in Casa Grande. We continue today to coach, wrench, and support what is now a thriving program. Visit the Youth on Track website to learn about this amazing program.

Statewide Youth Cycling Organizations

Arizona Cycling Association

The Arizona Cycling Association, a fall league, was organized in 2012 under NICA to provide competitive mountain biking programs for student-athletes in grades 6 to 12. The goal of the league is to get more kids on bikes and it has succeeded above and beyond what was originally expected. Round Trip Bike Shop, with the help of community volunteers, started the first High School Cycling program in Casa Grande with what is now known as the Arizona Cycling Association. Visit their website to find out more about this amazing program we have been directly involved with since the league started.

NICA Arizona Interscholastic Cycling League

AZ NICA is an emerging project of The National Interscholastic Cycling Association. Once the ACA became its own league there was still room for a spring league and a place for a NICA supported organization. The goal is to have fun, build confidence, and push through physical and mental limits. All student-athletes are equally welcomed into the league, to experience the thrill of cycling. Round Trip Bike Shop has supported the AZ NICA with our local Youth on Track team since the reforming of the program just a few years ago. Visit the AZ NICA website and support youth athletes by coaching or contributing today.
