Join host Evan Pilling as he talks with Cody Martin, Director of the Oro Valley Interscholastic Mountain Bike Club (OVMTB). Entering its sixth year of competition, the club has ballooned from 10 to 50 riders from middle and high schools in Oro Valley. It is an inclusive club, without tryouts or cuts, focusing on the development of young men and women via the sport of mountain bike racing. Student athletes get the opportunity to hone mountain bike skills and form new friendships as they progress through a summer of practices and then compete in a statewide fall race series put on by the Arizona Interscholastic Cycling League (www.arizonamtb.org). Tune into this episode to learn more about OVMTB, and check out their website (www.ovmtb.org) or Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/ovmtb/) for more information about how to get involved.
