SUMMARY:AgriCrit
DESCRIPTION:The AgriCrit p/b Bike Club NWA\nWelcome to the inaugural edition of the AgriCrit\, a one-of-a-kind gravel race around the enclosed and scenic roads of the Agriculture Park in the heart of Fayetteville\, Arkansas. This event will be hosted by Bike Club NWA\, a local Fayetteville cycling club and race team\, as part of the Ride Your Damn Bike Festival. \nA few notes to be aware of: \n\nIf you’d like to participate in multiple categories\, you will receive a $5.00 discount on each additional category you enter.\nAfter registering\, an online waiver form will be emailed to you. All participants must sign this waver prior to racing.\nThe Advanced Men and Women categories will have a minimum combined prize purse of $600 – if we can secure more funding prior to the event\, we may even have some cash primes or a higher prize purse. All other categories will receive awards for the top three men and women finishers in each category.\n\nAbout the Course\nNestled inside an eight-acre plot of land dedicated to agricultural research is a network of enclosed dirt and gravel roads\, and on September 20\, a portion of these roads will be transformed into a one-of-a-kind race course. The AgriCrit’s 1.6-mile clockwise loop features a fast and flowing downhill on the first half of the course\, a long uphill drag on the back half\, and a flat and technical start/finish stretch. With 49 feet of elevation per lap\, an open terrain exposed to the wind\, and a few skill-testing turns\, the course is anything but stale. \nHow to Get to the Venue:\n\nIn a Vehicle – Take Garland Ave. and turn onto Cassatt St. until you reach the venue. Vehicles will be directed to nearby parking lots north of the course. When leaving the venue\, you can only exit the same way you came in.\nOn Bike/By Foot – The venue can be easily and safely accessed from the Razorback Greenway. Turn onto N Morrill Ave. from the Greenway and keep going until you reach a gate on your right that opens into the Agri Park. (Please be mindful of a separate event that will be taking place along Morrill Ave. and the pavilion area until 2:00 PM.) After entering the gates\, take the first gravel road on your left (N Hillian Ave.) until you reach the venue.\n\nAfter-Party Details\nFollowing the conclusion of the final race (around 7:00 PM)\, everyone is invited to join us for a post-race celebration at Fossil Cove\, a local Fayetteville brewery about a stone’s throw from the Agri Park. A delicious pizza food truck\, Wicked Wood Fired Pizza\, is also located at the Cove and stays open until 9:00 PM on Saturdays. Fossil Cove also has plenty of non-alcoholic beverages as well. If you ride to the race\, we will be leading a group ride to Fossil Cove when the racing concludes. Sunset begins around 7:00 PM\, so lights are encouraged. \nAbout the Ride Your Damn Bike Festival\nThe AgriCrit is part of the Ride Your Damn Bike Festival\, a multi-day celebration of cycling\, community\, and craft based in downtown Fayetteville\, Arkansas. The festival includes: \n\nMaker’s Market & Expo – Featuring local frame-builders\, artisans\, gear-makers\, and food vendors.\nWorkshops – Covering bikepacking \, trail advocacy\, mechanics\, and more.\nCommunity Overnighter – A no-drop campout to reconnect with the land and fellow riders.\nLocal Group Rides & Shakedowns – From mellow cruises to mini-missions\nUltra Race – Multiple discipline options for self-supported adventure.\nDirt Crits – Glorious\, rowdy racing at the Agri Park.\n\nAbout Bike Club NWA\nBike Club was founded in an effort to reinvigorate the Fayetteville\, Arkansas road cycling scene following the pandemic and to reunite a fragmented Northwest Arkansas cycling community. Our initial approach was simple: extend an open invitation to anyone who would join us for a Sunday pilgrimage through the Ozarks\, and then share our experiences on social media to reach cyclists outside of our immediate network. Since then\, Bike Club has grown to become something much bigger than we expected\, and in 2025 we decided to formalize the competitive side of the club with the founding of the Bike Club Bandits\, a team of friends who race together across Arkansas and sometimes beyond. \nAs Bike Club continues to grow\, however\, our mission remains the same: to bring people together through cycling.

SUMMARY:Dirt Movement - Hillfolk Hootenanny

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). \nFormat\nThe Hillfolk Hootenanny is a two-day festival with rides\, runs\, food\, music\, creek swims\, and community! We have built the weekend so that you have multiple opportunities to participate in rides and runs while not missing an opportunity to sit on a log and listen to some live music with a cold beverage in hand. You can choose to participate in one\, two\, or three of the cycling and running events throughout the weekend. You also have the option to skip the bike and runs and just camp out\, listen to music\, and have some great food! \nUnpaved Runs\nThis isn’t your classic race! On Saturday morning\, we host a run on various unpaved surfaces over a number of distances. There may be creek crossings and an obstacle or two in your way\, so be ready. Anything is possible! \nGravel Rides\nThere will be a 15-mile shake-out ride on Saturday afternoon to allow riders to loosen up before taking on Sunday’s epic routes. And we don’t use the word epic lightly – just look at those elevation profiles. Enjoy the climb the locals have lovingly named “Booger Hill”. She’s a beaut. \nArtist Point Climb\nThe Artist Point Climb is one of the unique bike events for the weekend. This 13-mile paved climb takes you up 1\,500 feet to an amazing view of the Ozark Mountains and Lake Fort Smith. This event is part of The Chester Challenge. Participation in the Artist Point Climb is included with registering for any of Sunday’s gravel rides. \nThe Chester Challenge\nThe Chester Challenge is the pinnacle event of the weekend.
