Amanda Carey – President of NICA – National Interscholastic Cycling Association – Talking Trails, Youth Development, Leadership and Non-Profits – 171

For Episode 171 we have Amanda Carey as our guest. Amanda is the president of NICA, the National Interscholastic Cycling Association. Amanda worked for 5 other Outdoor and Trail Based non-profits leading up to her current role at NICA, including a role as the Executive Director for Mountain Bike the Tetons. We talked all things trails, the role that NICA is playing with youth sports, more broadly mountain biking, and we close with a story that takes this conversation to a place you might not all expect.

Topics Include:

• How Amanda got into mountain biking
• The numerous Non-Profit organizations that Amanda worked for leading up to NICA
• Programs within NICA such as the Teen Trail Corps. And GRiT (Girls Riding Together)
• And a pretty crazy story at the end!
