Gotta get the gear! NICA welcomes thousands of new riders each year (as well as thousands of returning athletes). The NICA Gear Guide lays out the basics of what riders need to have a safe, successful mountain bike season. It’s also a great way for NICA partners to showcase their support of youth mountain biking with exclusive deals, tips, and offers for NICA riders, coaches, and families. Em helped concept, design, and develop the Gear Guide in collaboration with NICA’s partnerships team.
