Presenting the 2018 Youth MTB Development Team

Coming off the success of the first year, we are proud to present the 2018 Youth Development Team.

In 2017, the Youth Development Program showed New Brunswick what it has in the pipeline. Its success across the province and outside of the borders showed that the next wave of mountain biking is ready to continue the tradition of great NB cyclists.

Lead by Pierre McIntyre, we are proud to present the 2018 team. It looks to build on the success with a lot of returning faces, and some new hot shoes. We want to take this time to congratulate those that were chosen for 2018, and wish everyone a successful season.
