Crescenta Valley High School Mountain Biking Team
Welcome to the CVHS MTB team – The home of camaraderie and competition.
The Crescenta Valley High School Mountain Biking team has been shaping young riders since 2008. We provide high school and middle school students the opportunity to train, race, and grow as athletes in a supportive environment.
Who We Are
Team Origins
The CVHS MTB Team was founded in 2008, originally as the CV/Clark/Glendale Composite Team. Over the years, it has grown into one of the most successful mountain biking teams in Southern California, and exists as a varsity sport at Crescenta Valley High School.
The team is part of the SoCal League, and was established in 2008. Focused on safe, high-quality, interscholastic mountain biking programs, the league has 1,100+ racers across 20 divisions.
Vision
We believe mountain biking is more than a sport – it’s a lifelong adventure. We aim to build a strong sense of community, promote the outdoors, and develop lifelong friendships.
At CVHS MTB, our philosophy seeks to promote:
- A life sport that encourages teamwork and personal growth.
- A team where everyone contributes, no substitutes, no “1st team/2nd team.”
- A co-ed team, with scores calculated across both genders.
- A spirit of camaraderie and competition that leads to lasting memories.
Team Overview
For the 2024-2025 season, we have 48 registered high school riders and 27 middle school riders. Last season, our team placed 10th overall in Division 1 during the five race, regular season series.
We had great individual results with 3 High School Boys in the Top 5 Overall for the Season Series in their respective categories and 6 High School and 3 Middle School racers achieving podium finishes throughout the season.
For the second consecutive year, the 2024-25 team boasts our largest ever Freshman Class, with 15 incoming 9th Grade Racers, Girls and Boys, ready to pitch in and contribute to our team results!
Communication for our team, especially regarding races and community activities, occurs on the Band App.
Race Schedule
Our race schedule for the 2025 Season is determined by the SoCal Cycling League, and can be found on their website.
Volunteer
CVHS MTB has a strong culture of volunteering with all coaches, booster club members, and parents devoting their time to promote physical health, community building, and love of the outdoors with our students. CVHS riders mentor and help younger MS riders build up their biking skills, physical fitness, confidence, and model responsible behavior.
Parents of CVHS MTB riders coach or volunteer as Course Marshals at SoCal mountain bike races at least twice per season.
There are many opportunities to help our mountain biking team and we welcome everyone to join!
