Collingwood Collective
Based out of Collingwood, Ontario the Collingwood Collective is a cycling team powered by Summit Social House and in partnership with our local cycling clubs offers a variety of fun cycling programming for youth. Click the links below to learn more about our programming.
RIDE
This volunteer driven five week program runs on one night in the spring in 2025 and hosts 60+ youth along with 20+ volunteer coaches. Together with leadership from our team athletes this program seeks to inspire all kids to get out and ride bikes in the woods. The focus of the program is riding bikes, developing skills and having fun in a low key group environment. We invite all of the community to support this program and help make things awesome.
This program is suitable for children ages 8-13 with some experience riding mountain bikes on trails. These children should be enthusiastic about riding bikes and bring this energy each night.
LEARN TO RACE
We are always looking to support local youth who are progressing their mountain bike skills and trying some local bikes races.
Past participants from our Kids on Bikes programming are invited to reach out if interested in filling a development spot on the Collective.
Selected devo participants are eligible for race fee reimbursement, free race kit and invitations to some 2025 training initiatives.
RACE
The forefront of our current program includes up to 10 race team athletes ages 12-18. These athletes compete provincially, nationally and also in the United States at UCI sanctioned events. They focus on mountain biking and cyclocross while also competing in gravel and road race events. This talented group holds multiple provincial titles and top series results. For 2024 These core athletes are moving into a higher level of competition with an eye on qualifying for world championships within the next 1 to 3 years. The race team roster for 2024 is full.
