New Year, New Plan
Dear Riders,
Welcome to a new year and a new Idaho League newsletter format, Idaho Dirt News!
We're thankful to put 2020 behind us as a year that challenged all of us in ways we never expected. While many teams found creative ways to keep riding, we all felt the void of a cancelled race season. We seriously missed you!
This year will surely present its own challenges. But we're diving in with renewed optimism and a commitment to host IICL events this summer and fall. Our plans (and contingency plans) include different formats that account for limited capacity and Covid safety protocols. Safety has always been, and will remain, our No. 1 priority.
Mountain biking is a wonderful metaphor for life: There WILL be obstacles in your path, and success depends on how you handle them. If we can teach our student-athletes anything, it is how to respond to challenges with creative problem-solving and perseverance.
With that spirit, we wish you a happy new year and thank you for your support as we continue to roll with the punches. Information about this year's events is going out to Team Directors now, and we'll share more details as we get closer to Pit Zone registration in April.
Ride on!
Eddie and the IICL Team
