Breaking Down Biking Barriers

6/24/2020

When we’ve talked to athletes or parents about why they’ve never considered cycling, there’s usually about 5 reasons that always come up:

​1. Safety

2. Money
3. Time
4. Teamwork
5. Eliteness.

For parents, having your kids “ride in the streets” can be very scary. Simply imagining the sacrifices of time and money, let alone the fears of safety, is enough to turn any parent away. It doesn't help that the average spectator sees cycling as a more "individual sport" rather than one that builds teamwork. Well, don't worry, we are here to break down those barriers and stereotypes, in hopes that you might see the beauty, excitement and passion of cycling, as we do.

When it comes to safety, we offer phenomenal programs and guides to keep your kids and our athletes as safe as possible!

When it comes to money, we help with initial costs, (like equipment rentals, and even programs that provide the bikes for you!) just to keep you active and going, until you’d like to invest yourself!

When it comes to time, we don’t train our athletes more than 2 one-and-a-half hour sessions a week, and that’s for our high performance athletes! You can join our group sessions, whenever you feel up to it.

​When it comes to teamwork, NCCH works together, in racing and training, to reach beyond each person’s goals, uplift each other in peaking and struggling seasons, strategize together in every competition, and grow together in fitness, health, character, and self-discipline!

And lastly, when it comes to eliteness, cycling is just a fancier word for biking. Some do it often, others haven’t done it since they were kids, but either way, whether you're biking to stay fit, socialize, compete, or just to stay positive, we want to ride with you!
