Southside Trail Riders (STRong) is a mountain bike team for middle and high schoolers in Henry, Butts, Clayton, and Fayette counties. As of April 2022, STRong is now officially a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization! We are members of the Georgia Cycling Association and its precursor since 2017. STRong competes in 4 state-wide races every year and many of our members will qualify for the Peach State Championship race at the end of the season. Team members also have the option to participate in group rides without racing. We practice at Dauset Trails, South Rockdale, and Quarry’s Edge Park, as well as other local bike trails. STRong welcomes riders of all skill levels from Grades 6 through 12.
GOAL: To have fun mountain biking while learning new skills and continuous improvement to ensure mountain biking and cycling are part of a healthy family lifestyle.
Team longevity: We have put controls in place to continue to ensure team longevity no matter who is leading. Coaches are currently supporting the team financially. To increase team recruitment, we have printed materials, built a website, setup e-mail list. We are also currently using the Band app for team communication.
Your Contribution: Your sponsorship of STRong will allow us obtain the tools and supplies to our riders and foster a lifelong love of mountain biking. Some of our needs are:
A large tent with the STRong logo for races
An event stand for bike storage at the races
Signage showing our team pride with our partners
Safety equipment
Food and keepsakes provided at our end of year team gathering
Bikes to loan riders and coaches who are not able to obtain a suitable bike
