Springfield Youth Cycling Club

Upcoming practices + events!

⚠️Practice on 7/20 will be a 1 hr trail ride and begin at 6:30 due to heat 🥵

Hey team!

⚠️ Practice Update for Tomorrow (7/20)⚠️

🥵Due to the Heat Advisory, we are adjusting tomorrow’s practice to comply with NICA guidelines.

* New Practice Time: 6:30–7:30 PM (1-hour practice)
* Please make sure athletes drink plenty of fluids throughout the day and arrive well hydrated.

Our goal is to get everyone out on the trails for a shorter ride where they’ll spend less time in direct sun, while still getting in a quality practice. We’ll continue to monitor conditions and will let everyone know if anything else changes.

Tomorrow’s practice will be held at the Stick Dance Trailhead on the south side of Fellows Lake. Check TeamSnap for address and share your availability 👍🏻

See everyone tomorrow! Stay cool and hydrate!

Summer Dirt Crits! 🤙🏻

Summer Dirt Crit on a new course with @missourioffroadcyclists at Two Rivers! 🤙🏻 These local races are a great way for student athletes to prepare for the NICA races and coaches to have some fun racing, too. SYCC doesn’t race as a team, but the extra time for community is the best. Next Tuesday night race is at Sac River. Check out MORC to become a member and sign up! 📸: by Coach Tricia and podium photos by @missourioffroadcyclists 👏🏻

SYCC showed up at the Summer Dirt Crit series at Spokes BMX! MORC hosts a race every Tuesday evening in July.

These races are not affiliated with NICA and we don’t race as a team, but it’s a cool community and perfect opportunity to prepare for the NICA race season. Some of our coaches have some fun on the course, too!

Check out to see upcoming events.

📍 Practice location update!
We’re trying out a new spot tomorrow night and will be meeting at the Fellows Lake Dam parking lot for practice! Check TeamSnap for the schedule and coordinates so you know you’re heading to the right place.

🚨 Today is the FINAL day to order your FREE practice jersey! Make sure you’re practice-ready in PitZone and get your order in before the deadline.

See everyone tomorrow at 6 PM. Bring your bike, helmet, water, and get ready to ride! 🤘

We’re just getting the season started, but race weekends will be here before we know it!

One of the best things about MO NICA is that every athlete gets to choose their own adventure. Some are chasing podiums and love to compete, while others are here for the trails, friends, and good vibes. There’s no right or wrong way to do it.

If you’re new to SYCC/MO NICA, event weekends include an optional pre-ride of the course on Saturday and races on Sunday (this is also optional). And they’re a lot of fun.

Whatever your goals are this season, whether it’s racing, improving your skills, building confidence, or just having fun, let Coach Mike know. We’d love to help you get there!

Questions about race weekends? Just ask a coach at practice or DM us.
