Registration Open APRIL 1, 2024
In partnership with the Bristol Recreation Department, 5 Town Riders is a central community cycling club that aims to support youth riders (5th-12th Grade) as they develop individual bike skills in a team-focused environment. We offer skills training and trail rides in a group setting from June - October.
We also offer (but not require) participation in the VTYC Race series.
The club also dedicates time for Trail & Service work in our local community to give back to the landowners whose property we ride on and to teach the team about caring for the land and general trail/earth stewardship. 

5Town Rider Club:
We welcome grades 5-12 to ride with us this summer/fall, you do not have to race to be part of the 5Town Riders. If you are interested in racing, then please register in addition to VTYC. A good working mountain bike with front/full suspension and hand brakes is a must, and your own transportation to training and races is a plus. The 5TR and BRD offer a free bike library for riders in need of a bike to use. Please contact the BRD to set up a bike for the season.
