Ready to ride with the North Carolina League?

WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU!

Student Athlete Registration for 2024 will open in PitZone on 1 October 2023

2024 Season Registration Information

Standard

Regular: $240 per rider

Opens: 1 October 2023

Closes: 21 January 2024

Beginning the first Sunday in October, returning NC riders can log into Pit Zone to register. New NC riders will need to be invited to Pit Zone by their team’s Head Coach or Team Director. We close season registration on 21 January 2024 to ensure student athletes receive sufficient coaching prior to the start of our regular season events. And for those who are signing up to race, registering by this date ensures the student athlete gets a personalized race plate.

Late: $250 per rider

Opens: 23 January 2024

Closes: 26 February 2024

Of course we know life happens and some don’t get the “word” about this awesome league until late in our season. So we’re offering a late registration window to allow for those circumstances. For those interested in joining the league after this date please contact the League Director at director@northcarolinamtb.org.

Season Registration includes…

Full season of practices and rides led by NICA Certified Coaches

Teen Trail Corps Opportunities and Awards

Girls Riding Together (GRiT) Programming

Statewide mountain bike advocacy and development.

Professionally-led coach education and development.

Discounts on gear and bikes from NICA’s amazing sponsors including up to 20% off the cost of a bike from our partners!

2024 Season Event Registration Information will be posted here in early October 2023
