Mountain biking builds confidence, coordination, and resilience through active outdoor fun. Unlike many sports, no one sits on the bench — every rider participates at their own pace in a supportive, encouraging environment.
Our coaches all have background checks and current Wilderness First Aid Training.
Open Trail Cycling was organized by AJ Davidsen. AJ is a teacher, coach, and lifelong outdoor enthusiast based in Star, Idaho. He currently teaches piano and brass instruments and is the founder of Allegro Jams Music Academy, where he helps kids develop confidence and creativity through music.
In addition to music education, AJ has coached youth sports for over nine years. He has level 2 Flow & Air certification from the Global Syndicate of Mountain Bike Coaches (GSMBC) as well as a level 3 NICA coach. AJ is certified in wilderness first aid and CPR. He also has professional bike mechanic experience from George's Cycles.
AJ’s coaching philosophy is simple: meet kids where they are, prioritize safety, and make learning fun. He focuses on skill progression through games, positive reinforcement, and age-appropriate challenges. Whether a child is brand new to riding trails or looking to grow their confidence, AJ is committed to creating an encouraging and inclusive environment for every rider.
When he’s not teaching or coaching, AJ enjoys riding local trails, woodworking, and spending time with his family.
