19 Jul 2020 by Amy Day

Practice Groups are Starting
Riders registered in the PitZone as of Friday the 17th will be invited to join practice groups starting this week. If this includes you, look for a separate email with practice details soon. To be added to a practice group for the following week, you must be registered in the PitZone by Friday, July 24. Due to COVID protocols, we are requiring kids to stay with the practice group they are assigned to. We will rotate the kids into new groups every few weeks. Please bear with us as we work through the new COVID protocols and try to make all this work.

Please Join us on TeamApp
The team is moving to TeamApp for our primary means of communication. We hope to phase out TeamSnap by the time school starts. Please download the TeamApp app on your smartphone and then search teams to join “EHS MTB Team”. You can also create an account on your computer by going to www.teamapp.com. Please be sure to fill out all personal information, emergency contacts and medical information.

New Season Format
The Colorado League fall race season will have a new format due to COVID. Please click here to see that announcement from the League. We won’t have our traditional weekend races, instead a 12-week program called “Singletrack Solidarity” is planned. We will be sharing details of these fun team and individual challenges in the weeks ahead.

Coach Training
EHS MTB coach training for the Single Track Solidarity program and COVID protocols will take place on Thursday at 5:30 pm via Zoom. Zoom Meeting ID 898 2223 7107, Password 157827. Coaches, please try to make it if you can.
