Our 2021 Awards Celebration at Allaire State Park

Our 2021 Awards Celebration at Allaire State Park earlier this month gave us a chance to recognize several of our NJ NICA community for their hard work and accomplishments in what was anything but a normal season.

One of the awards handed out was the Marty Epstein Reliable Rider Award. Marty played a key role in getting the NJ NICA League started, and his leadership and counsel are sorely missed. The Reliable Rider Award recognizes a student athlete who has gone 'above and beyond' in demonstrating support and service to their team, teammates, or community. This year's winner is Erickson Brown from the Salem County Reactors. His coaches say he has become a great example of a team leader throughout this year, embodying all the best qualities of a NICA athlete and our friend Marty! Congratulations Erickson, and thank you for being such a positive example for your team and for our NJ NICA Community!

The 2021 Awards Celebration Day at Allaire State P

The 2021 Awards Celebration Day at Allaire State Park was a great chance to hang out, ride, and celebrate what was really a miraculous season. It also gave us a chance to celebrate some of our student athletes for going above and beyond.

Each year we award the Chris Schilling Memorial Award to a student athlete who truly loves mountain biking, and has overcome challenges with grit and determination - all with a positive and inclusive attitude. Chris' upbeat philosophy of "Yay bikes!" is one shared by this year's winner, Kevin Soutar of the East Morris Rockies. Kevin has always inspired his team and coaches with his determination and "can do" attitude, and has also helped establish the NJICL Environmental Committee. Congratulations Kevin, and thank you for all your hard work - we can't wait to see what you do next!

Go Kate!!! Reposted from @nytimes Cross-country

Go Kate!!!

Reposted from @nytimes Cross-country mountain biking has been part of the Olympics since 1996. It’s a sport normally dominated by Europeans. And for the first time an American cyclist has a chance to reach the podium thanks to Kate Courtney from Marin County, California.

@kateplusfate grew up biking in the hills behind her house. In her first year in the elite field, she achieved something no American, man or woman, had done for 17 years — winning the world championships. The following year, 2019, she won the Overall World Cup title, taking the top spot in three of the seven World Cup races in the process.

For Courtney, who is in her prime, an Olympic gold medal is the remaining achievement. She will be competing in the women’s mountain bike race in Japan on Tuesday.

In Europe, where the sport has robust grassroots support and participation, the top athletes in the field are considered celebrities. Local races often bring out large crowds, and World Cup races attract thousands to Germany, the Czech Republic, France and Slovenia. Every season, a majority of the sport’s race calendar takes place in Europe.

Here in the U.S., it’s a slightly different story. When Courtney started racing mountain bikes in 2009, NICA, a scholastic cycling league, had less than 1,000 participants across the country. Today, it has over 14,000.

Earlier this month we held our 2021 Awards Celebra

Earlier this month we held our 2021 Awards Celebration Day at Allaire Park. We had a great group of student athletes and adults join us for some fun riding, BBQ, and a chance to celebrate some of our amazing community!

Among those we honored were our coaches of the year. Believe us when we say ... if we could honor each and every one of our coaches we would - we KNOW how lucky we are to have some many wonderful people supporting us and our student athletes.

This year we celebrated Jeremy Klopper from the Revolutions and Jamie Gada from the East Morris Rockies. Both have been with the league from the beginning, and without a doubt are amazing examples of the kind of dedicated coach that allows NJ NICA to be the success that it is! Congratulations to Jamie and Jeremy - and thank you to all our coaches!
