Volunteer Expectations

As a non-profit 501(c)3 entity, we are dedicated to our mission of building lifelong cyclists through Safety, Respect, Hard Work, and Fun.

As a volunteer organization, we rely on the help of the parents of our athletes. As such, we will expect that all families contribute of their time. We have many volunteer opportunities on race weekends, the most important of which is handling the meals for your athletes. Please review these opportunities and let our team director know how you'll be contributing this season to help make another incredible year.

Coaches' Corner

Coach the Coach rides:

Coaches – We’ve set up times in Google for you to ride with our more experienced coaches. Pick a coach (or a few), bring your questions, and use this time to learn how to better meet athletes where they are.

Crank and Drank (Cnd) rides:

I want all coaches attending the South Austin CnD rides (meet behind ATX bikes Tuesdays - wheels down at 6pm). Once you've ridden 3-4 times they will allow you on their listserv. The listserv is where you will get the GPX files we'll be riding most Saturdays. It's how you'll learn our Saturday routes, it's how you'll get more fit, it's how you'll be able to better participate as a coach. Do it.
