Craig brings over 30 years of mountain biking experience and has raced Category 2 Cross Country, Category 1 Downhill, Category 2 Cyclocross, as well as BMX and Road. Today, he spends most of his time mountain biking for fun and doing an occasional gravel race when time permits. Craig grew up in the Pacific Northwest and moved to San Jose in 2013 with his wife, Jean and their boys, Alex (17) and Luke (19). Alex plans to ride with the team this year but his passion is high jump so he will be focusing on that this year. Luke plays basketball at San Jose City College and his wife Jean is an Assistant Principal at an elementary school. Craig's all-time favorite place to mountain bike is Squamish BC with Bellingham, WA a close 2nd.

Nate's motto: Mountain biking is never not fun!

Coach Amy is an outdoor enthousiast.

Coach Dave was born and raised in San Jose, a city he fondly remembers as being filled with fields and orchards. His journey with bicycles began at a young age, marking the start of a lifelong passion. The sense of freedom and the personal growth he experienced while cycling have been significant elements of his life. His involvement with San Jose Composite and participation in NICA races rekindle his warm memories of the early days of mountain bike racing in the 1980s. Coach Dave is eager to pass on his passion and extensive knowledge to his team, aiming for their future success.

Throughout his life, Coach Dave has actively participated in and raced across multiple cycling disciplines, including MTB, CX, Road, and Track. In his younger years, he gained valuable experience working at Slough’s Bike Shoppe in San Jose, and he was part of the Rockshox team during the pioneering days of the Judy suspension fork. He now resides in Willow Glen with his lovely wife, Ashley, and their two children, Chloe, 13, and Jon, 12. Chloe enjoys soccer and track, though she hasn't taken an interest in mountain biking. Coach Dave’s rich background in cycling, combined with his dedication to his family and community, make him a cherished figure in the local biking scene and an inspiring coach for the next generation of cyclists.

Inge absolutely cherishes her time outdoors, especially when she is mountain biking with her  2 boys. The thrill of the trails and the beauty of nature make every ride a memorable adventure. As a board member handling social media, she's thrilled to share our love for the outdoors and our biking escapades with the world.

Coach Jeff is a lover of many sports and master of none. Jeff loves the outdoors and finding more mountains to climb while hanging with his son and other mountain bike enthusiasts.
