SUMMARY:Dirt Movement - Twin Mountain Gravel
DESCRIPTION:Twin Mountain Gravel\n\nA festival celebration of dirt and community. Our goal with Dirt Movement events is to create courses and experiences that are shared\, as much as possible\, for all participants. It doesn’t matter if you’re running 3 miles or riding 50 miles. We are one community with one purpose – get outside and move. \nWhat else do we all have in common? We love to eat (a lot)\, drink (beer or buch)\, and be merry (rock out to local music). \n  \n\nFormat\nChoose to bike or run the quiet backroads tucked between Springdale and Fayetteville. \nRunners at Twin Mountain Gravel will get to share the same creek crossings\, punchy climbs and tree canopies as the cyclists. \nCyclists will have the option of two course distances. Each of those distances has 2 single-track options\, allowing you to choose your own adventure based on how you feel. These variations come once you enter Lake Wedington and the Ozark National Forest. Choose one\, two\, or none of the single track sections while not veering from the courses and being separated from your friends. \n  \nOfficial Rule of 3 Training ride!!\nWe have partnered with Rule of 3 in making this the only Official training ride. Rule of 3 is almost exactly one month after Twin Mountain Gravel\, take this opportunity to hone your singletrack skills\, test out your bike setup and build your stoke! \n\n\nWhat Is Included in Registration?\nYour ticket to ride\, and run\, on some quiet Northwest Arkansas’ backroads! These scenic roads are a beautiful place to lose yourself – or find yourself. Either way\, we know you’ll love the courses. \nSwag\nThere are a lot of events in Northwest Arkansas and we appreciate you choosing to participate in ours. We want your commemorative item to be something that you’ll actually wear and will serve you well. We will have hats\, beanies\, and socks to choose from at packet pickup. You decide what you like and need most. And hey\, buy a t-shirt if you like them as much as we do. \nAid Stations and On-Route Support\nEach route will have multiple aid stations brought to you by some of our partners like The Meteor\, Rapha\, and more. In addition to the stationary aid\, you’ll find vehicles on course to help you out if things don’t go as planned. We got you. \n  \nTiming\nThe event will be timed but it isn’t a race. Runners will receive an overall time for their efforts. Cyclists will have two timed segments on their courses. One is in the second singletrack section and the second is on a gravel climb. The only award you’ll receive is from yourself knowing that you participated in a good time. \n  \nYou’re the DJ on course!\nIn your confirmation email you will receive a link to a Spotify playlist. Add songs that inspire you\, make you want to shake it\, or bring you back to earth. These tunes will be jamming on course throughout the day. It’s your event. \n  \nLive Music\nFeaturing The Meadow Makers and more coming soon. Each Dirt Movement event will have live bands from all around the region. We will be announcing the rest of the line up as we get closer! \n  \nFood and Drink\nNothing can bring a community together like a shared meal. Sitting down to connect and exchange stories of the day’s adventures over a plate of hot food and free beer from local breweries is key to a good time. \n  \nRaffle Giveaways\nWe’ll be raffling off high-quality prizes throughout the day courtesy of our sponsors. Must be present to win!

SUMMARY:36th Annual Devil's Den Mountain Bike Festival
DESCRIPTION:UPDATE & DATE CHANGE:  \nAccording to Tim Scott\, Assistant Superintendent at Devil’s Den State Park\, “Due to the extreme weather\, the Ozark Mountain Bike Festival has been rescheduled for April 19\, 2025. The event will be a one-day affair\, and we will release a new schedule within a few days. I included a few photos of the flooding in the park.

SUMMARY:Doom
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the 4th edition of Ozark Gravel Doom – the premier bikepacking event of Arkansas! \nThis is not for the faint of heart; it’s a proper Ozark backcountry experience. Forest Service and County roads get ROWDY. A hardtail mountain bike with 2.2″ tires or bigger is the general recommendation. If you’re a fan of underbiking\, you won’t be stopped but you’ve been warned. \nResupply runouts are one of the most notable challenges of this event. A combo of limited store hours and tiny “towns” take the logistics to a heightened level. \nBelow are the tentative routes. Changes will be minor if any – water levels can attribute to this. Expect some water crossings no matter what. \nDoom  \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/45392659 \nDespair \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/45393331 \nDismay  \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/48643965 \nThe start/finish venue is Horseshoe Canyon Ranch. Vehicles can be parked here for the entirety of the event and there’s plenty of camping for everyone! Cabins are also available for booking. We blocked off cabins Friday\, Saturday and Sunday night for this event so you’ll have to call to make a reservation. Just mention you’re participating in Doom and they’ll let you book anything that’s still available! Camping is first come\, first serve – but they won’t run out of space. They’re actively working on an additional campground that will have reservable sites as well (2025 TBD). Horseshoe Canyon Ranch day rates\, meal pricing\, and other amenities & activities can be found via the link below. \nhttps://www.horseshoecanyon.com/ \nDoom & Despair riders will be required to carry a tracking device and register via Trackleaders (this happens closer to the event) so please be aware an additional cost will come up apart from this event registration. Renting ends up being around $80 and providing your own ends up being around $30. \nDoom & Despair riders get gremlin bells the morning of the event. These have to be attached to the bike in some form or fashion throughout the ride. \nDismay was added to get more people in on the party! Tracking is optional. \nFull refunds available before March 1st\, 2025; no refunds after that. You may transfer your registration to someone else or you can defer as credit to a future event. \n*This is a self-supported event. You will be given loads of emails as the event date approaches to set you up for success and to answer a lot of commonly asked questions. Despair & Dismay riders will be able to sleep in the backyard of an airbnb being rented in Oark for night one and use the facilities in the house (running water\, toilet\, etc.). If you need to be picked up on route it is your responsibility to figure it out. If it’s an emergency\, we will treat it as an emergency.

SUMMARY:Central Arkansas Cyclocross Series
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Central Arkansas Cyclocross Series “CACS”\nThe atmosphere of cyclocross racing is what draws many racers and fans to the sport. Cyclocross is very spectator friendly with the courses set up in local parks\, along with the short races happening at high speeds. Although the racing can be highly competitive on course\, there’s a festival environment outside the course tape. \nWhat is Cyclocross?\nCyclocross combines elements of road cycling\, mountain biking\, and steeplechase. Races are relatively short (20-60 minutes)\, held on 2.5- to 3.5-kilometer closed circuit courses in parks and open spaces. Riders race over varying amounts of pavement\, grass\, dirt\, and sand. \nCan I use a mountain bike or gravel bike for cyclocross? \nAlmost any standard bicycle with two wheels can be used for cyclocross at local cyclocross races. Bicycles with drop handlebars are standard equipment for cyclocross\, but flat bars (with no forward or upward extensions) are allowed. Gravel bikes can be used for cyclocross races\,  Drop handlebars are required at USA Cycling Cyclocross National. \nTire Width Rules for Cyclocross\nThe condensed version is that any tire width is allowed for local USA Cycling-permitted cyclocross races. \nPoints for the Series  \nPoints for each race will be awarded based on how many participants come and race. Winner of the series will be awarded
