Top Step Development is proud to promote cycling at a very young age by developing a program that will empower kids ages 6 and up to learn the basic skills required to ride on mountain bike trails, with an introduction to racing on our team and advanced skills when ready. Practice schedule: Starting October 1st and every Tuesday, and Thursday, 4:30-5:30 pm Through May 27th, 2027 Must-have Equipment: Mountain bike with gears and hand brakes. Tires need to be knobby for dirt trail traction. Proper fitting helmet. Helmets must stay snug during riding. Gloves. Hands tend to get sweaty, and full-finger gloves protect against slipping on the grips and any chances of falling and scraping hands and fingers. Glasses for eye protection. The trail is full of bugs, dust, and low-hanging branches that may hit the face while riding, so eye protection is recommended. Optional knee and elbow pads are recommended. Cycling: Water bottle and water bottle cage, or hydration backpack. For our newer rider's MT bike Fundamentals will be taught and tested: Ready/neutral position for descending hills Side/Side bike body separation Pedaling/shifting efficiently Controlling speed and braking safely Cornering confidently Handling obstacles and rocky terrain Riding with vision Ratcheting and momentum

Pedal Power: Rolling is ideal for children who can ride a pedal bike and are ready to build confidence, safety skills, and smart riding habits. Coaches support riders through longer rides, clear skill-building goals, frequent check-ins, and small-group instruction. Participants should be comfortable riding a pedal bike independently. Rather than practicing in one location, riders learn on the move—exploring safe routes while practicing hills, traffic, and safety sign awareness, and responsible decision-making on the bike. This program is best suited for Jr. Kindergarten through 1st grade riders who are ready to ride with a small team and supportive coaches.
Practice schedule: Every other Friday
Block 1: October 2nd through December 11. Oct 2, 16, 30; Nov 13, 27; Dec 11th
Block 2 January 8th through March 19th
Block 3 April 2nd through June 4th

Respect your distance, train appropriately, and you'll have a great race day experience. Listen, there is no doubt that triathlon training requires some intense training time but the reality is most people do too much quantity and not enough quality. We call this "BS miles" and prefer to see our athletes train, rest, and still excel in other areas of their life. We create customized plans for each athlete. The plan is loaded into Training Peaks on a weekly basis and designed based on your goals and your available training hours. Frequent communication between athlete and coach. We also analyze power files and data to help you understand your training and race zones. This is reflected in the monthly fee.
