The BTBRT Race Team develops strong riders by first developing strong character. Our athletes represent BTBRT on the track, in the pits, and in their communities. We are not selecting the fastest riders. We are building future leaders of the sport.

 At BTBRT, it is not about winning. It is about who the rider is becoming. The team is not built on race results. Riders are selected based on character, effort, and attitude because these qualities create long term success in sport and in life. Riding skill can be developed. Character is what earns a team spot. 

 BTBRT riders listen to instruction, try corrections without attitude, ask questions to improve, and want to learn rather than show off. Effort matters more than outcome. Riders are expected to push through difficult drills, keep trying challenging skills, and give consistent effort every lap. 

 Racing is emotional and team riders learn to manage those emotions. Riders handle disappointment calmly, win with humility, stay respectful when frustrated, and never throw gear, blame others, or act out. 

 Respect is non negotiable. Riders show respect to coaches, parents, volunteers, officials, other riders, and the track property at all times. 

 Riders are expected to care for their equipment, be ready when it is time to ride, help when needed, and take ownership of mistakes. This is a team environment where riders encourage each other, support younger riders, celebrate each other’s success, and represent the sport in a positive way.  

BTBRT riders enjoy improving. They look forward to practice, focus on building skills, and care more about getting better than beating others.

A rider may not be ready to represent the team if there is ongoing disrespect, frequent complaining, refusal to listen to instruction, or poor sportsmanship. This is not punishment. It simply means more growth is needed before wearing the team jersey.
