Such a great opportunity for kids in our region. We need more organizations like this that encourages kids to be more excited about outdoor activities. This organization is doing an amazing job not only getting more kids active, but they're also providing them with the fundamentals to lead healthy active outdoor lifestyles. Cycling is a lifetime sport they'll continue to do into adulthood. Many parents start cycling too so they can ride with their kids. Kids are provided with fresh opportunities to form new friendships with other kids from other districts who share the same enthusiasm for cycling, just having fun and being active.

This is a wonderful charity organization with social causes. The children enjoy mountain biking and the coaches are wonderful. They challenge the children to show their best, both physically and mentally. The kids love the challenge.
You have my support!

This is a fantastic group with selfless, caring, knowledgeable coaches. This team not only teaches my kids about mountain biking but about teamwork and responsibility. As a single parent on a limited income being able to borrow a bike for my daughter has been key to her being able to ride as a member of the team. My son has found his passion which has grown by leaps and bounds since joining the team. Both of my children have grown not just as athletes but as people. Very grateful to this team and the volunteer coaches for this opportunity.

This is a fantastic organization with wonderful coaches! There are not a lot of groups out there for kids who love to ride, so the fact that kids get the chance to make friends, as well as compete, is awesome.

The Catskill Claws is a Mountain Bike team that is run by volunteer's. They are able to even provide some bikes for team members who do not have there own bike, until they are able to get one. This is a tremendous help to parents who are not sure if there child will like the sport, but they can try it with out spending a large amount of money on a bike.
