Background Statement
Roaring Fork Cycling is an organization that began offering coaching to young people in the summer of 2017. One of the goals set forth by the founders was to instill a love for being outdoors and fostering healthy lifestyle choices by participating in a sport that can carry youth into their advanced years. In the short time that RFC has been operating we have witnessed amazing transformations resulting from empowering young people through cycling. We have seen hard work and dedication turn once shy, intimidated pedalers into confident, strong athletes. We see riders encouraging each other at the top of tough climbs, helping each other master new skills, and spreading the stoke by recruiting friends with little to no biking experience to join them.
