NICA Spirit Award – The Tucker Family
The Tucker family received a Spirit Award for the last race. They have given so much of themselves and their time for the last four seasons. Mindi and Kevin are a dynamic duo that are the first line of defense to keep our races safe and responses to accidents quick. Kevin is chief course setter and leads the team of people that mark the race courses. Mindi is the chief course marshal, managing the marshals along the course to ensure a safe experience. Keera is an 8th grade student athlete that races with grit and determination – 5th place in the 8th grade girls series championship. Abel is along for the ride – always looking for ways to play with all the kids and be helpful to the team. We can’t say enough about how much this family means to Arkansas NICA.

NICA Spirit Award – Arianna Clark
Arianna is an 8th grade girl rider for the Conway Bearcats. One of the other riders in her race fell behind her at Cedar Glades. She heard it happen and turned around to make sure the other student athlete was okay. Arianna helped the other student athlete call her mom and alerted a course marshal to help get her medical care. It’s hard to say exactly, but it’s likely she finished at a lower place because of the time that she spent helping. Arianna put the other student athlete before herself, a noble thing that shows strong character.

NICA Spirit Award – Eric Blocker and the Madison County Composite Team
Madison County is a new team in our league in 2019. Eric Blocker has worked so hard to bring biking to a community that hardly had any previously. Huntsville Middle School, with help from Anya Bruhin and the BikeNWA team, received a Specialized Foundation Outride Program grant, which got a classroom set of bikes for the middle school. Eric and his team have spent a ton of time volunteering on the trails. It’s an amazing thing to start a team like this from scratch in a community where it hasn’t existed before!

NICA – People for Bikes Economic Impact Study
This season, NICA has partnered with People for Bikes to study the economic impact NICA races have on our community and we need YOUR help! Please take 5 minutes to complete the following short survey about last weekend’s race. Your participation will provide valuable information that will enable NICA to share the positive impact league events have on our state and within our communities. Survey participants will be entered in a drawing for a chance to win cool prizes, including a free race entry! You can access the survey HERE.
Thank you again for your help with and participation in this important study!
