Mountain Biking (Spring)

  • Welcome to the CCHS Mountain Biking (MTB) Team!

    Mountain biking is one of the fastest growing high school sports in the country. The CCHS MTB has been formed to ride this wave of growth and to join over 40 teams that are competing in the North Carolina Interscholastic Cycling League (NCICL). Our team practices on the many outstanding MTB trails in and around Charlotte, and we will compete in league races across the state.
