Rock the Ridge
Bentonville Bike Festival 2026

Rock the Ridge is a family-friendly gravel event rolling through the quiet roads and ridge lines around Pea Ridge, Arkansas. We’ve designed two routes so everyone can share the day whether you’re brand-new to gravel riding or looking for a solid early-season challenge.

Routes

  • Gravel Beginnings: 13-Mile Loop: Low-traffic gravel and paved sections, welcoming to all ages and abilities w/ marked route.
  • Gravel Fondo: 45-Mile Route: A classic Ozark gravel ride with rolling terrain, scenic ridges, and a mix of fast sections and steady climbs. Route will not be marked, participants will need to download the route prior to the event.

Route links will be emailed to all registered riders before the event.
