SUMMARY:Ouachita Gravel Grind p/b SHAM
DESCRIPTION:Event Date: January 6\, 2024 \n  \nThank you for joining us for the 2024 Ouachita Gravel Grind!! We are pumped and ready to bring you a top tier experience. \nEvents \nThis year’s OGG will include a 100K race\, a 50K Junior RACE\, & a 50K tour. Both the race and tour will have mass starts. \n  \nPreparty and Packet Pickup \nPacket pickup\, meet and greet\, and prerace dinner will be held Friday at Superior Bathhouse Brewery in downtown Hot Springs on Bathhouse Row. Superior’s address is: 329 Central Ave\, Hot Springs\, AR 71901. Packets will be available there between 6pm and 8 pm. SHAM will have a beer tab available and each registrant will get one beer ticket /root beer ticket(JUNIORS!). Otherwise\, their full menu and bar will be available\, and you will be responsible for your tab. Look forward to seeing you guys there!! \n  \nLocation for Race HQ and Start/Finish \nThe start/finish will be on W Main Haul Rd\, approximately 1 mile north of Hwy 298\, at the intersection of W Main Haul Rd and Ritter Trail. The GPS coordinates are 34°41’51.3″N 93°06’10.3″W. If you put that in your GPS\, it should take you directly to the race start. You will see our tents set up at the start/finish.  \nFrom the intersection of Hwy 298 and Hwy 7 at the Blue Springs Grill\, drive west on Hwy 298 ~2.9 miles to the intersection of W Main Haul Rd. Turn right (north) on W Main Haul Rd. The start finish is less than a mile ahead. Park on the right (east) side of the road only. \nParking\nAs you approach the start/finish\, park along the gravel road on the east side. This is the right side as you drive toward the start/finish. There should be plenty of room to park along the road.   \n  \nBathrooms \nWe will have two porta-potties at the race start. There are several convenience stores\, gas stations\, restaurants\, and even a Walmart in the area. And\, we’re in the middle of woods providing ample space for the more adventurous riders to relieve their bladders. Please plan accordingly.\nRoute \nYou can download a GPS file to download into your bike computer or phone at:  \n  \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/38104326 \n  \nIt’s an out-and-back course of 100% gravel through the gorgeous Ouachita Forest north of Hot Springs\, AR.  \n  \nBike Choice \nUnlike most routes in Arkansas\, the gravel on this course isn’t particularly rocky\, but you’ll still need to prepare for some rough areas. A gravel or cyclocross bike with 35-40+ mm tires will be the best choice for most people. It could be ridden on a tough set of 28 mm road tires\, but would be less comfortable\, and probably not as fast. It could also be ridden on a mountain bike\, but the suspension and wider tires would not be considered necessary. Having said that\, bike choice is very personal. Ride what is comfortable for you. Many will prefer the handling and gearing of a mountain bike. Others may prefer the familiarity and position of a road setup. For the majority\, the fastest and most comfortable choice will be a drop bar\, relaxed\, gravel/cyclocross bike with 35-40+ mm tires.  \n  \nAid station \nWe will have our usual “hubcap” aid station!! You’ll see it at ~15 miles after the start\, and ~15 miles from the finish on this out-and-back course. SHAM will be running our “dead crow” turnaround aid station at the midpoint of the race\, and the timing at the start/finish. \n  \nThe aid stations will have water coolers to fill your bike bottle\, and basic nutrition available (bananas\, granola bars\, etc.) There will be very basic tools to get your bike in order\, if needed. This may include a tire pump\, boot\, tubes\, hex wrenches\, etc. With that in mind\, please plan to support yourself. A flat kit with two tubes\, master link\, and multitool are all highly encouraged. \nDrop bags \nThe 100K racers will be given an option to have a drop bag at the turnaround. The bag will be\nprovided BY YOU and returned AFTER the event SWEEP is complete. It will need to be sealed and well marked so you will be able to recognize it easily. They will be gathered at the start on the morning of the race and will be laid out on a tarp at the turnaround for you to pick up\, remove or leave what you like\, and re-seal. We will\nthen return them to the finish line for you to retrieve. Any bags or belongings left will be thrown\naway or donated. \n  \nTime cutoffs \nThe 62 mile race/tour will have time cutoffs at each aid station. Total time allowed to complete the 62 mile course will be 6 hours. That’s a 9 mph average. If you do not believe you can keep a 9 mph avg for 62 miles\, please move your registration to the 40 mile course. Time cutoffs for the aid stations will be: \n  \n30 mile turnaround: 1:00 pm \n45 mile station: 2:30 pm \n  \nAt 1 pm\, the 30 mile aid station at “dead crow turnaround” will pack up and start heading up the course SWEEPING toward the finish. If they encounter a rider that hasn’t turned around yet\, that rider will be required to turn around and head back to the finish at that time. This van will also act as a sweep vehicle for the course. If they encounter riders heading back to the finish after they had already made the turnaround aid station\, they will not sweep them up unless they miss the cutoff at mile 46. The SWEEP will be able to accommodate a limited number of riders and their bikes and carry them back to race HQ. Once in the broom wagon\, you may not get out to continue riding. You will arrive back to race HQ by 4 pm. If you have a friend pick you up from the course\, please be corteous and stop by the start/finish and let us know you’re finished for the day.   \n  \nSafety \nWe have a safety plan in place in the event a rider has a medical or mechanical issue. We request that all riders carry a cell phone. If you need non-emergency help\, dial one of the race directors. Stephen Harrison: 501-655-2182\, Adam Moore: 501-318-8870\, or Paul Alexander: 501-681-6030. If you need emergency help\, dial 911\, then the race directors. If you do not have cell service\, but can safely move yourself\, head to the nearest aid station. The aid stations will have long range walkie talkies to get in touch with race headquarters and HAM operators\, along with cell phones. The roads will remain open throughout the race\, and ambulances can get anywhere along the course\, if necessary. We are planning for an event without such needs\, but we have notified all local authorities if one should arise.  \n  \nDuring this event\, deer hunting will be in season for archery only. No gun hunting of any kind is permitted in the counties we’re riding through on race day. Hunting is never allowed on roads\, either. Bow hunters are much closer to their target than gun hunters\, and less likely to mistake their target. We expect a safe event. However\, we highly encourage everyone to wear bright neon colors\, preferably orange or pink. Be seen! You want to stand out. This will keep everyone safer. \nAlso\, if you have symptoms of any illness\, stay home. FFS\, I can’t believe I have to write that at all.  \n  \nRaceday schedule: January 6\, 2024 \n9:00 am Packet pickup available \n9:50 am Packet pickup closes \n10:00 am Start for all riders \n4:00 pm Riders are finished \n  \nPost race \nFollowing the race\, we will have podium shots and hand out the awards. For anyone excited about sharing the post-race stoke feel free to meet up back at Superior Bathhouse Brewery Saturday evening for post race hash-out! \n  \nLodging \nWe have no affiliation with any lodging facilities. This information may be of help for you. If you have questions\, please ask!\nCamping: USFS campgrounds are closed for the winter\, including Iron Springs\, S Fourche\, and Lake Sylvia. Gulpha Gorge in Hot Springs 20 min away and has facilities for RVs\, fifth wheels\, etc. Primitive camping may or may not be available along FR 11 (aka Gladstone Forest Road).  \n  \nHotel/motel/B&B: Village Inn 5 min away at the Main Gate for Hot Springs Village; Mountain Thyme B&B 10 min away; Hotel Hot Springs\, The Waters\, Embassy Suites\, and other hotels in downtown Hot Springs 20 min away. \nAirbnb\, vrbo\, homeaway: multiple private rentals within 15-30 minutes of the race site \n  \nQuestions/Concerns \nPlease contact us with any questions or concerns regarding this event. Message us through our Facebook page at facebook.com/shameventsllc\, email us at shameventsllc@gmail.com. You can also post a question in the Facebook event\, and we can answer it there. I’m sure other participants will have the same question! If you need to call us\, you can contact Paul Alexander at 501-681-6030\, Adam Moore 501-318-8870\, or Stephen Harrison at 501-655-2182 via voice call or text message.

SUMMARY:Arkansas R3/The Pea Ridge Ramble

SUMMARY:Ouachita Challenge
DESCRIPTION:The Ouachita Challenge Race Association has been working hard behind the scenes to bring you a fun and safe 2024 Ouachita Challenge. We are in the final stages of getting our permits and approvals for the event. The OC must still follow state and local guidelines. Check the OC Facebook page for any changes or updates. \nThere are a couple of changes for this year’s OC. The biggest change is a Saturday Gravel Grinder. The gravel course will be using some of the same roads the tour course used\, roads that are parallel to the trails and the same aid stations. The Gravel Grinder will be 100k in distance. Map coming soon. \nThe Sunday Mountain Bike Race will remain the same. \nWe also have a category for those daring enough to sign up for both days. \nThe wait list will be on the Ouachita Challenge FaceBook page this year instead of the bulletin board. \nWe are still having breakfast each morning as well as Saturday night dinner.  We will be able to seat 19 family groups in the school cafeteria at a time and will have some outdoor seating as well.\nRiders will still be able to sleep in the gym and it will be and will be set up to keep safe distancing from each other.  Tent camping will still be allowed on the school grounds but safe distancing needs to be maintained.

SUMMARY:Doom
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the premier bikepacking event of Arkansas. We don’t start or end in a busy city with traffic and flashing lights; instead\, we get deep in the heart of the Ozarks and ride\, hike-a-bike\, resupply\, and sleep where the population is low and the terrain is all-time. \nThis is not for the faint of heart; it’s a proper Ozark backcountry experience. Forest Service and County roads get ROWDY. This year we’ve even included some of the best singletrack in the state. Both options start and end at the BOC Ponca Downhill Trailhead. At least a hardtail mountain bike with a minimum of 2.2″ tires is the general recommendation. If you’re a fan of underbiking or only have a gravel rig… you won’t be stopped but you’ve been warned. \nTotal event cap is 100 regardless of what category numbers are at. This is the max number of day guests we can have at the lodge and the max the long-term parking area can accommodate. \nIn for the Long Haul? The Doom route incorporates most of what has already been used in the two prior years but elevates the experience with some new terrain after more scouting and avoidance of long-term Forest Service mandatory detours. \nDoom \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/44851077 \nInclined to join the party but need/want to get back to real life in a more reasonable timeframe? Insert the new Despair route. Still a race on the front end but also a phenomenal 3 day+ tour. \nDespair  \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/44851144 \nBoth options have a pre-race check-in\, hangout\, and meeting the night before the event on Thursday\, March 28th at the RiverWind Lodge. This is less than half a mile from the race start where all vehicles will be left during your ride. There are 8 rooms in this lodge that will also be available as an add-on to registration if you want to stay there. Rooms with two queen beds can sleep up to four people if you’re trying to split costs/logistics with some homies. If you reserve an available room it is your own private room unless you ask others to join you. Day guests will have to leave by 10PM to keep the BOC staff happy. \nhttps://www.buffaloriver.com/lodges/riverwind/ \nThere are plenty of lodging and camping options in the area – I advise you look into it sooner than later. No tent or vehicle camping at the RiverWind Lodge. No tent camping at the BOC Ponca Downhill Trailhead either. \nCamping/Lodging ideas: \nhttps://www.buffaloriver.com/ \nhttps://www.jbtradingco.com/ \nhttps://horseshoecanyonduderanch.com/ \nhttps://www.nps.gov/buff/planyourvisit/camping.htm \nAnything in Jasper\, AR for the most amenities! \n  \nEveryone will be required to use trackers during the event via Trackleaders.
