Who We Are
Our team spans the age and competitive spectrum. Casual riders and series racers of all backgrounds are welcome!
Casual
We have regular touring rides at a conversational pace. Explore some of SE Michigan's lesser know routes or visit some of the great local establishments.
Competitive
Many of the big races through the year get the full support treatment. Food, shelter, and tools are available to make sure you have everything necessary to succeed.
Social
We're more than just teammates, we're family. We host social events throughout the year to kick back, socialize, and form lifelong friendships.
About Us
The team has members of all skill and fitness levels. Whether you participate in 100 mile mountain bike epics or just enjoy a ride to the local coffee shop, you'll fit right in. Don't let the "RACING" in the name scare you off.

- We start planning for the season in January, but applications are open year-round
