Registration for Devo’s all of Devo’s programs is online through our website! Once you’ve chosen a Devo group you’d like to register for, view all of Devo’s currently active registrations on the “Register Now” page. Click on the appropriate registration link and then complete the required fields. Registration is not complete until we’re received your payment. Keep in mind that once you start registering, we only hold your registration spot for 20 minutes (see the timer in the upper right hand corner of the registration window), so make sure to have your personal information and credit card handy.

Yes! You need your own bike to bring to every practice. Specific bike requirements depend on the age group. This information can be found by finding your program under the Ride with Us menu. For riders on Devo Scholarships, some assistance with bikes and equipment is available. Learn more on the Scholarships page.

In general, you should ALWAYS bring a helmet with a safety rating certified for mountain biking that fits your head snuggly but comfortably. The helmet should be free of any dents, cracks, or defects. Devo recommends you always replace helmets every 2 years.

You should also bring:

• Close toed athletic shoes or mountain-bike specific shoes,
• Clothing appropriate for the weather (warm layers and a rain jacket if necessary, or light breathable clothing for when it gets hot),
• Water,
• A healthy snack,
• A tube that fits your tire, tire levers, and a mini pump. A quick-link that fits your chain is also a good idea.

If you don’t have a way to fit these items either on your bike or comfortably in your pockets, you should bring a backpack or fanny pack.

Sunscreen, bike gloves, and quality sunglasses are also always good to have.

Visit 2nd Avenue Sports or Pedal the Peaks if you need recommendations on any bike-specific gear.

Practices for all of Devo’s groups will meet at various locations and trailheads throughout town. All meeting locations are within a 15-minute’s drive of downtown Durango.

All Junior Devo groups will meet directly at the specified trailhead to avoid commuting on roads; this page of our site has more information, and is updated with group-specific schedules each season. Upper-level groups may choose to meet at a trailhead or at a central location in town, like the Durango Rec Center or Rotary Park.
