More Than Just a Bike Team

Riders learn how to care for their gear, maintain trails and support one another—building friendships and life skills along the way. The team emphasizes inclusivity and sportsmanship, creating a welcoming environment for all riders regardless of experience level. Each practice or event is an opportunity to grow physically, mentally & socially.

Connecting Riders to the Outdoors

By participating in local trail-building efforts and community events, team members give back to the outdoor spaces they enjoy, learning the value of stewardship and sustainability. Whether they’re pedaling through wooded paths or helping clear and maintain those very trails, riders become part of a team culture rooted in respect, resilience & fun.

The Keystone Mountain Bike Team helps youth build strength, friendships & confidence through cycling, teamwork & outdoor exploration in Lackawanna County.
