612mtb is a youth development mountain bike team serving riders in 6th - 12th grades, who live in south Minneapolis, Minnesota. Our riders attend, or will attend, Southwest, Washburn, Roosevelt, and South high schools, or reside in south Minneapolis and attend other schools without teams of their own.
We train together as a single team, and race under the banners of our respective schools. All team activities occur under the umbrella of the Minnesota Cycling Association (MCA).
Our mountain biking season runs from early July to late October. For athletes who choose to race, the 5 race MCA series begins in late August and culminates with the state championship in mid-October. Registration for the upcoming season typically begins in May.
New athletes and families have a lot of questions--you aren't alone. Here are some answers to common questions.
We are a co-ed team and girls make up a large part of our identity. We strive to ensure every student-athlete gets the attention they deserve and the girls find the space, representation and community that allows them to succeed.
Mountain biking is a fall sport, but registration for the 612mtb team closes in early June. To ensure new team members receive timely registration details, follow the "I want to join!" link, below.
Returning riders will receive registration information through TeamApp.
