Our mission is to build strong bodies, strong minds and strong character through cycling, regardless of ability level. Simply put, we get kids on bikes. Student-athletes from 7th through 12th grade come from all corners of the state to participate in races and programs. The majority of these kids have never ridden a mountain bike, let alone raced prior to participating in the league.  Our association has grown from just over a hundred riders to over 1,500 riders! The MN League has become more than a racing program, we are a youth development program. Each year we get hundreds of new student-athletes, coaches, volunteers and spectators. We firmly believe that cycling and an outdoor experience will leave a lasting impression on young minds and bodies. -------------  RELATED SHOW LINKS Thanks to HealthIQ for sponsoring this episode: HealthIQ.com/MBR Support Mountain Bike Radio by shopping through our Amazon Affiliate Link: http://amzn.to/1SC3svC Minnesota High School Cycling League website: http://www.minnesotamtb.org Minnesota High School Cycling League on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MinnesotaMTB Minnesota High School Cycling League on Twitter: https://twitter.com/@MinnesotaMTB Minnesota High School Cycling League on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/minnesotahighschoolmtb National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA): http://www.nationalmtb.org Mountain Bike Radio Links: Shop via our Amazon Affiliate Link: http://amzn.to/1SC3svCGo to the Mountain Bike Radio Store: https://shopmbr.com/Become a Mountain Bike Radio Member: http://mountainbikeradio.bigcartel.com/category/mbr-memberships Mountain Bike Radio Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/MountainBikeRadioMountain Bike Radio on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MtnBikeRadioMountain Bike Radio on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mtnbikeradio/Mountain Bike Radio on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYE6EAkjP_dmm94_HbKya0Q
