ABOUT US

The Ozaukee County Composite MTB team was formed in 2012 and was started by head coach Emily Hurd, Shawn Cotter, Amy Osborne & Ricky Knox. From an initial team of less than 10, the 2021 roster totaled over 95 riders. We now have multiple teams – Cedarburg Bulldogs, Grafton Black Hawks, Ozaukee County Composite, and the Port Pirates.  Any Ozaukee County student who will be in 6th through 12th grade is welcome to join us - there is a team for you!

GENERAL INFO

Riders will be a part of a co-ed team with all levels of fitness and ability, and which includes both middle and high school students. Riders have the opportunity to compete, ride for adventure, and have fun.  Competitions, with over 1,000 riders, occur over a 5 race series throughout Wisconsin.

​

Thanks to the awesome area MTB trails, we have plenty of riding opportunities.  Pleasant Valley Nature Park, Glacial Blue Hills Park and others are close.  We also have many other trails within an hour drive.  Most area trails are maintained by volunteers, including groups such as Metro MTB and GEARS.  Riders will also have the opportunity to give back and support the MTB trails through NICA supported trail work days.
