LOCAL DIRT

Local Dirts are team practices that bring in other teams for extra fun. A local, weeknight scrimmage that make the sport more approachable, affordable and accessible for everyone.

What makes Local Dirts successful?

Low-Barrier: Simple to host, Simple to join

Fun-First: The goal is riding together, pushing each other and having fun…not results

Format: .5 - 1 mile short course, quick set up, no frills

Permanent: Someday! We envision a future where Local Dirts are like soccer fields and cross country tracks - permanently marked and maintained.

Simple, Yet Impactful

Little League fields and soccer pitches exist because people in communities made them happen for their kids.

Local Dirts happen when teams come together to create simple, safe and fun opportunities for student-athletes to ride bikes in their communities.
