SUMMARY:Rule of Three
DESCRIPTION:Come Early and Stay Late! \nBeginning as early as Tuesday May 12th\, we’ll have shake out rides\, community get togethers\, and other great ways to experience OZ – endless trails\, bike cafes\, museums\, swimming holes\, and hangouts. \nSponsor a Rider \nDonate to the RO3 Peace and Love Fund and sponsor another rider’s registration cost.  If you want it to cover someone in particular\, email us their name and we’ll refund their registration.  All names receiving this fund will be kept confidential. Reach out to us if you are in need of financial assistance.  Email: lauren@ruleofthree.bike \nCamping \nCamping will be located on-site at the event location.  This is a gorgeous open field with plenty of space to pitch a tent but not a camper van or RV.  If you’re traveling by camper van\, there is a gravel lot near the camping that is first come first serve.  If you’re traveling by RV please park at a different location and ride your bike to the race.  There will be no RV parking anywhere on the road or field. The closest RV campground is at Blowing Springs Park in Bella Vista. \nThere will be port-o-potties and a dumpster for garbage but no potable water.  Please come prepared with enough water for the entire weekend. \nRefunds\, Transfers\, Deferrals \nNo cancellations or deferrals but you can transfer to another person or change your category by midnight of MAY 12th\, 2026.  You can change your category or transfer your registration to another rider by following these BikeReg directions:   \nHow to Transfer your Registration to Someone Else \nHow To Change The Category You Registered For \nHow to Remove yourself from a Waitlist \nRO3 Merch \nWe make a generous donation to Arkansas NICA from the sale of every single piece of merch\, so you can wear your gear knowing you helped get MORE KIDS ON BIKES! \n  \nPLEASE TAKE SPECIAL NOTE: \n1.  Time cutoff \n\nRule of Three is not your average 115 mile bike ride.  Think road race\, meets gravel\, meets MTB\, meets adventure race all rolled into one!  Our course takes significantly longer to complete than an average 115 mile gravel event. If you’ve never done this race before and you’re not sure if you can complete a 115 mile RO3 route in less than 12 hours\, we strongly suggest that you choose the 60 mile option-it’s still a beast!\nFor the 115 miler\, we will have a time “check out” on course that you must pass by a certain time.  If you haven’t made the time cutoff you’ll need to call for someone for a ride or wait for our Broomwagon\, 37 North Expeditions\, to come pick you up.\nWe want you to stand up to the challenge but we must keep the safety of all our riders top priority.  We aim to have the last riders finish by 8pm.\n\n2.  Teams \n115 and 60 mile 3 person teams take off (time trial style) in 1 minute increments. The team rides the route together\, stopping at checkpoints to gather their “proof” and they must finish together. \n3.  Age Limit \nIf a rider U14 (13 years and younger) wants to ride at The Rule of Three\, the rider will need to register under the U14 + Adult category and ride together with that adult during Rule of Three.  The Rule of Three routes incorporate road\, gravel and singletrack.  Riders will need to ride alongside cars and have intermediate to advanced experience in all disciplines and be well versed with the rules of the road. \n4.  Inclement Weather Policy \nRule of Three will happen if the “creek don’t rise” and if it does we’ll route around it!  Northwest Arkansas weather can be unpredictable to say the least.  Come prepared for freezing and hot temps.  Blue skies and dark skies.  Dry and wet conditions.  Buckle up…no matter what\, it’ll be a fun ride! \n5.  Routes \nThe Rule of Three routes are new every year and we try to hold off on route revelations until right before the event….the element of surprise is a nice touch. \n6.  Volunteer at Rule of Three \nwww.bikereg.com/volunteer-at-rule-of-three \nFor up to date information head to our Instagram page and our website.

SUMMARY:TRIFEST for MS
DESCRIPTION:The Trifest for MS triathlon\, the largest triathlon in Arkansas\, draws people from all over the country to Bentonville to raise money for multiple sclerosis research. \nThe Rampy MS Research Foundation hosts the event and each year the race raises almost $100\,000 towards multiple sclerosis research in Arkansas at UAMS\, Northwestern University in Chicago and University of California at San Francisco (UCSF). Since 2012\, the Trifest for MS and other foundation activities have raised close to $900\,000. \n“Most people don’t realize research doctors actually have to raise a lot of money themselves to fund their research\,” race founder Scott Rampy told Fox 24 News. “So we would rather keep scientists in their lab coats studying the disease and figuring out how to cure it versus raising money for their research.” \nHis wife\, Jo Rampy was diagnosed with the disease about 20 years ago. She said the organization is a good way to show other people living with the condition\, that they’re not alone. \n“This illness is progressive\,” Jo Rampy said. “We can get lost in that progressiveness. But we don’t. We take our energy and our time\, and we place it into a cause that can help others.” \n*The events in 2025 will not be USA Triathlon Sanctioned due to the participant one day fee increasing to $21. Instead there is a $7 race insurance charge added during checkout. \nTrifest for MS features a para triathlete division in all the youth events\, and the super sprint distances. Simply register for your race distance and choose the option during registration that you are a para athlete.

SUMMARY:Ozark Enduro Lite Race 3 Coler Preserve Bentonville AR
DESCRIPTION:Curious about Enduro Mountain Bike Racing? Not sure how an Enduro race works? Let us help you get your feet wet with the Ozark Enduro LITE Series. A short summer series of 3 beginner friendly enduro races. All rider abilities are welcome but the Ozark Enduro Lite Series is aimed at introducing new folks to the awesome sport of Enduro racing. \nEnduro racing is primarily downhill timed segments\, ranging anywhere from just less than a minute per stage to up to 5-6 minutes that may require some pedaling. A typical Ozark Enduro Lite race will consist of 4-6 downhill segments. Your time will start when you enter the top of a segment and will end when you reach the bottom of that segment. There will be connecting routes to transition between each segment that will not be timed. Only the segments are timed. Riders often ride with groups and make new friends while enjoying the trails during the transfers. After completing all the downhill segments\, your total time will be compared with the times of other riders to see how you did. \nYou will be required to have a fully functional bike and a proper helmet. Full face helmets are recommended but not mandatory. Other recommended items are gloves\, eye protection\, knee pads\, elbow pads. We also strongly encourage carrying the necessary items for minor bike repair such as tire plugs\, tubes\, CO2\, spare chain links etc. \nThere will be aid stations\, however\, it is important to carry enough water and nutrition to last throughout the race. Typical durations will be anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on the course and each rider’s ability. \nPre Rides are available Saturday mornings 10 am -1 pm.  (courses are open to public).  We will be announcing a guided pre ride.   Race day riders meetings are at 8:45 am.  Race Start 9 am.  You must finish by 12 noon.  Awards about 12:30 approximately. \nNone of these races would be possible without volunteers. Volunteer help will be needed at every race\, and we would love to make you a part of our event and give you some cool swag. There will be multiple volunteer opportunities such as helping at an aid station\, course marshaling\, and race setup and tear down.
