MotaCycles race team
Race team program
Join a crew that rides what it fixes. We are looking for mountain bikers who race, create, and care about the community—backed by our workshop and suspension service in Cheshire.
Who we want
Racers, storytellers, community builders
Like the best grassroots and development programmes, we want riders who can carry the brand with integrity on track, on trail, and online—tailored for how MotaCycles runs as a workshop and suspension service in Cheshire.
Between the tapes
We want riders who love racing—enduro, downhill, XC, road racers or local series. Results matter less than attitude, consistency, and how you represent the sport.
On camera & online
Short-form video, race reports, or honest product and service stories help other riders find us. You do not need a huge following—authenticity wins.
In the community
Coaching nights, dig days, club rides, or helping newer riders—if you show up for people, you fit what we are building.
Partnership
What you can expect from us
Clear expectations and real value from our workshop and suspension service—not vague promises. Final perks are agreed in writing when you join.
Workshop & suspension priority
Preferential booking windows for workshop and suspension work, with rider-first turnaround when slots are tight.
Rider rates
Team pricing on labour and selected services—details agreed when you join.
Direct line to the crew
Setup advice, suspension questions, and straight answers from mechanics who actually ride.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a UCI licence or pro results?
No. We care about how you ride, communicate, and show up for the community. Podiums are a bonus, not a requirement.
Is this paid sponsorship?
This is a grassroots-style program: perks, discounts, and support—not a salary. Exact benefits depend on tier and commitment.
Can teams apply?
Yes. Put the team name and main contact in the form and tell us how the partnership would work for everyone.
How long until I hear back?
We aim to acknowledge applications within two weeks. During peak workshop and suspension service times it may take a little longer—we appreciate your patience.
