Narrative:
Leaving ixd and following departure instructions; we received a TA/RA. 1 mile or so from our nose was a glider at what looked to be our altitude. RA said stop climb; so I did. I turned at a 45 degree [bank] away from the glider and started visually clearing in the direction of my turn when I spotted a second glider just slightly below our altitude and at about 2 o'clock so I leveled my wings. At about that time we received a notice that there were no more conflicts. We then contacted ATC with the details and resumed following departure instructions.
