Plum Mustang MTB: 

A NICA MTB Race Team For Kids In Grades 6-12 

The Bike Lab is proud to sponsor and operate our local NICA (National Interscholastic Cycling Association) team at Plum Borough School District. 

We are an official club sport with the school district.

Our team enjoys a fun, active season, practicing twice a week from July to October at Boyce Park in Plum, PA. If your child is also committed to other simultaneous sports, that’s okay! Every practice is not mandatory - participate in as many or as few of the practices as possible. Obviously, we encourage your child to attend as much as possible to become the best mountain bike athlete possible - but no one ever sits the bench. 

Our team participates in optional cross country-style bike races all over Western Pennsylvania with a fun statewide event in Gettysburg every season.

Our team has a ZERO TOLERANCE policy for bullying. Your child will be in a fun, all-inclusive environment with trained MTB coaches. 

 This sport will wow even the most experienced riders. Prepare to have fun like never before!

Jim Yurek, owner of The Bike Lab, is the Plum Mustang MTB Team Director. He has been a dedicated Level 3 NICA coach for over 10 years. Please reach out to Jim at 412-704-4367 or via email at plummustangmtb@gmail.com for more information.
