"Thank you SO MUCH, for getting the High School mountain bike league going. It changed Chantal's life forever. It gave her confidence and a sense of self that she was lacking until she started racing at Fairview. Biking will always be a pillar of her life."
-Fairview High Parent
Personally, I saw nothing but good sportsmanship while on course. These kids are tough as nails, and the lessons they may unknowingly take away from being a part of this league will carry out to more than just the dirt. - Parent
Thank you again, and please keep us in mind for future volunteer and outreach opportunities. - Parent
A quick note of heartfelt thanks for your tireless work throughout the season, culminating in a fabulous Championship weekend in Eagle. Although I was not able to attend any of the prior races with my coaches this year, the finale you put on in Eagle was phenomenal and I can't tell you how much we all appreciate your efforts. The venue was top notch, the organization fantastic, the volunteers friendly and outgoing, the food DELICIOUS, and the kids were able to really take flight thanks to the great work of your team and your leadership. THANK YOU!! - Will Webb, Head of School, Fountain Valley
I'd like to start by thanking you for continuing the legacy of the Colorado League and providing all of us racers a chance to race in these trying times. Thank you so much for fostering the incredible energy and community in this league that got me into the sport I love so much. My best memories from cycling so far are undoubtedly from the Colorado League races. I wish you the best of luck with the league in the future. Sincerely, -Chloe Fraser, Senior, Boulder High
It has been such an honor to be a part of the League as a parent and coach. I truly cherish my experiences as part of this amazing community and know that it has played a big part in shaping the great guy Ethan has become. Even though Ethan is graduating I know my husband (Cam) and I will stay active with the team - how could we not? We are also actively recruiting Ethan's 12-year sister to give bike racing a try (she's played soccer for years). - Nicole Wobus, Fairview
Congratulations on another great season for the Colorado High School MTB League! I made it to check out the race in Eagle yesterday and was really impressed with the entire setup and operation. Thanks to you, the entire Colorado League staff and all of the volunteers for keeping this awesome program alive and growing. - Jeff Fox, Osprey Packs
