Who We Are
The Oklahoma Cycling League (OKCL) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) Project League of the National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA), a leader in the youth mountain biking movement. We facilitate the development of high school and middle school teams for grades 6-12, producing high-quality mountain bike events and races that emphasize the value of participation, camaraderie, positive sporting behavior and well-being over competition.
Long story short? We are a safe, inclusive, fun community for kids on bikes.
