The NP
Elite Cycling Team is a group of cyclists from the Native Planet Outdoor Club
that is focused on improving speed and cycling skills by riding from a high
brisk to a super-strenuous level. Some members of the Elite Team enter races
together while wearing our Club's jersey, but we are not a racing club*. Our emphasis is on FUN and you need not race to be a part of our Elite Team Training Program.
Local training utilizes weekly hilly rides at a high-brisk to super-strenuous pace and on weekends, we do longer, high elevation-gain rides throughout the state of Washington. We love mountain passes! Darol in Tacoma and J-Philippe in Seattle usually lead the Elite Training
Rides.
*Note: The Native Planet Outdoor Club is not a racing club; we are a recreational club open to all cyclists, regardless of their level of accomplishment. We do offer an
Elite Team
training schedule so the strongest cyclists can push themselves as training or
just ride for their own pleasure. The racers enjoy being part of a group of
friends wearing the same jersey, but racing is NOT an NPOC activity so the Club
assumes no liability for members participating in races or any other third-party
sanctioned events.
