Avout Racing is hiring! Do you love cycling and working with kids? We want YOU to become an Avout Racing junior coach. Yes! You! Avout Racing is a non-profit cycling organization in the southwest Denver metro area. With our kids' programs continuing to grow, we’re looking for new coaches passionate about sharing their love of bikes! We are accepting applications NOW for anyone 16 years of age and older.
We have positions available for all mountain biking and cyclocross levels, from beginners to experts. For our upper-level coaches and director positions, we are looking for people with more experience in training, coaching, and cycling.

Even beginner mountain bikers who are great with kids make fantastic coaches for our younger groups.
