Who We Are
Founded in 2009, the National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA) develops interscholastic mountain biking programs for student-athletes across the United States.
Coaches Resources
NICA coaches are role models and teachers who are open to learning the best practices of youth mountain bike coaching and actively work to hone their leadership skills on and off the bike.
Our Leagues
Leagues fulfill NICA's mission, improving the lives of teens and positively impacting communities by providing a high-quality, safe and fun interscholastic mountain bike program.
NICA exists because of the generous support of our founding sponsors, national sponsors and our donors. If the interscholastic cycling movement moves you, please consider donating and help get one more kid on a bike!
NICA is More Than Racing...

As we take time to honor those who have given their lives in service to our country this Memorial Day, we want to express our gratitude for the sacrifices made by so many.
At NICA, we believe in the power of cycling to build strong bodies, minds, and communities. And we recognize that this freedom to ride, and to come together as a community, has been made possible by the sacrifices of those who have served our country.
Today, we honor and remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation, and we express our deep gratitude to all of those who have served or are currently serving.
Let`s strive to embody the values of service, courage, and selflessness that so many have demonstrated.
