FLYRS School Programs
FLYRS is proud to partner with local schools to offer mountain biking programs at school sites that remove barriers to riding and expand access for youth in our community.
These school-based programs provide bikes & helmets during practice and are designed for students who may not otherwise be able to participate in our traditional fee-based offerings.
This year, FLYRS programs will be available at Puente de Hózhó, Killip, Marshall, Cromer (NEW for 2026!), MEMS, and Summit High School. Registration for each school is available below. To help us keep these opportunities equitable and inclusive, please register only if you are not and cannot enroll in another FLYRS program.
We’re always excited to build new partnerships with schools that share our commitment to youth development through cycling. If your school is interested in hosting a program, please contact our Program Manager, Becca Somerville.

This group is designed to keep students riding bikes safely in the community for grades 3-5. We cover: how to hand signal, riding safely on roads, key bike handling skills (braking, gearing, maneuvering), plus play games focused on fundamentals. This group will ride off-campus to nearby bike trails/park in the community.

Marshall Elementary
If your child is interested in exploring the coolest parts of their neighborhood on a bike, this group is for them! We focus on key bike handling skills in a controlled environment (proper braking, gearing, and riding on dirt trails.) Participants in this group will learn about trail stewardship, basic bike maintenance, and explore trails and bike-friendly areas near the school.
3rd/4th: This group will focus on the most basic bike handling skills, including: How to brake safely, gear usage, and working up to ride the easiest areas in the neighborhood. They will experience basic jumps at school, plus the opportunity to explore dirt jumps near school property.
4th/5th: This group will broaden the focus and skill application of the 3rd/4th grade group, including: How to ride safely in the neighborhood, ride more advanced jump features near school, and longer/more difficult trail rides.

Mount Elden Middle school
The MEMS group works on building key bike handling skills while accessing some of Flagstaff's best trails and the FLYRS/Puente bike park. The park contains drops, skinnies, a pump track, skill zones and flow lines built by Flagline Trails & the FLYRS community. We make time for skill-related games and snacks while on trail, or before/after a trail ride.
Riders must be able to control their speed on hills and ride a minimum of 3 miles on singletrack bike trails. All skills will be assessed before riding the bike park (skill dependent).
Spring 2026 Schedule: Coming Soon...
STAR SCHOOL
This group focuses on all things fun on your bike! We play skill-related games & activities, ride on trails close to school, and touch on bike maintenance.
Riders must be able to ride a bike on dirt, and be passionate about riding with the group each week. Skills will build on what was covered in previous weeks.
SUMMIT HIGH SCHOOL
Summit High (10th-12th Grade)
This group meets during PE class. We cover key bike handling skills, basic & practical bike maintenance, and take field trips to bike centric areas or businesses in the community.
