Maryland Interscholastic Cycling League

Maryland Interscholastic Cycling

There is a revolution going on right now in youth cycling. In 19 states, there are state-wide middle and high school bike racing leagues up and running. More than 15,000 kids ride or race in NICA (National Interscholastic Cycling Association) leagues. Some individual schools have over 120 kids on the bike team! Other amazing statistics include: 80% of participants have no prior cycling experience, 80% also report that a parent or sibling picked up riding as a result of their participation, and 99% say they will be cyclists for the rest of their lives.

This past October, Maryland Interscholastic Cycling League (MDMTB) launched as a new league within NICA committed to bringing experiential learning and character development programs to Maryland that use mountain bikes as a primary tool.

MDMTB works within the boundaries of NICA to produce safe, quality mountain bike events that focus on equality and inclusivity and further the goal of developing strong body, strong mind, and strong character for our participating student-athletes.

We are a 100% volunteer organization that relies on the support and
participation from the community to operate our programs. Please check us
out on social media at @marylandMTB or online at marylandmtb.org and see
how you can be a part of the Maryland League! It is easy to be a coach or ride leader, no experience required & we provide training and insurance. We're holding interest meetings around the whole state from now through March - find one near you or invite us to your community and we'll help you organize a meeting!

Upcoming meetings (all are Facebook events, find them through our page)
