Hey, look! It's Coach Amy — our hero! 🎩✨ Thank you for everything you contribute to the Mad Hatters and this community. We're so lucky to have you on the team, and we love seeing you shine in KICL's inaugural 'Ride Your Story' spotlight! 🥳🧡💙

✨ Introducing: Ride Your Story ✨
A series celebrating the coaches, riders, and humans who make Kentucky mountain biking what it is.

🎉 We’re kicking things off with someone who doesn’t wait for mountains to move — she moves them herself.
Meet Amy Poynter.
Founding member of the Madison County Mad Hatters MTB team. Middle school science teacher by day. Motivator of projects by night. Main cheerleader for Madison Co Adventure Trails in Richmond (MadCATR). KYMBA Bluegrass board member. Madison County Multiuse Trails Alliance. And the list. keeps. going.
Amy rides. Amy teaches. Amy coaches. And when she’s not doing all of that, she’s out on the trails with her family, doing the thing she loves most.
She is exactly the kind of squeaky wheel you want. 🛞

Coaches like Amy are why KICL exists — and why it keeps growing. Want to be part of something like this?

The Mad Hatter Skills Area Project is moving forward!
BIG THANKS to JR McNally for donating his time and equipment to move a big dirt pile (delivered by City of Berea Public Works 🥰) onto the skill lines.

Please stay tuned for trail days in the coming months to:
-shape skill line berms/dirt
-build features like rock gardens
-shape and form the Strider track

Thank you!
