September 7 and 8 was our first NICA Weekend of the season!
Saturday there were dozens of student athletes and coaches participating in Adventure. They played games and did a ride with some activities interspersed on the trail. It was all about the fun!
Sunday is race day – where hundreds of student athletes converged on the Passion Play to race the first race of the season. Energy was high, and student athletes laid it all out on the trail.

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!
