Welcome! This is the temporary home of the Michigan Interscholastic Cycling Association, also known as MICA. We are part of the Michigan Mountain Biking Association and focus on getting youth involved in the sport of cycling, both for recreation and competition.
As such out mission is as follows:
The Michigan Interscholastic Cycling Association works to establish and maintain safe, quality scholastic cycling programs. The Association is responsible for establishing a program that will:
• Provide students who have the desire to race bicycles with the coaching and camaraderie that will help them achieve both competitive and non-competitive cycling goals in a safe and enjoyable manner;
• Develop an awareness of what it is to be an amateur athlete that is both gracious and respectful to their community;
• Create an environment in which they may discover new friendships and find role models;
• Guide students towards learning new skills and disciplines, and spread the foundations of bike racing across the state;
• Foster a responsible attitude toward the use of trails and wilderness;
• Promote the value of cycling to our community as a mode of transportation and as a life long sport.
We have many goals and ambitions for the program, including helping schools that wish to form cycling clubs and teams and also forming an interscholastic racing program, with a pilot league scheduled to start in the fall of this year.
Stay tuned for more information as we develop.
