SUMMARY:Newton County Brutality
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Newton County Mentality\nThree Days of Bikes and Community\nFriday:\nWe’ll start things off on Friday afternoon with a 3-4 mile time trial that stays within the canyon walls\, ripping around on the gravel and world-class singletrack at Horseshoe Canyon Ranch (HCR). You’ll choose your bike\, but choose wisely cause you have to use that bike on Saturday and Sunday too. Finish the day with a meal in the Lodge Restaurant\, a campfire with friends\, and a good night’s rest in the cool fall temperatures. \nSaturday:\nThe big day — you’ll set out to tackle the best\, and hardest gravel riding in the state of Arkansas. This is backcountry gravel at its finest: big climbs\, fast and technical descents\, remote roads\, and the best views that the Ozark Mountains have to offer (remember\, it’s peak fall foliage). You’ll choose between 65- and 40-mile categories\, each expecting around 9\,000 and 5\,000 feet of climbing\, respectively.\nReturn to the ranch tired and empty\, then fill your bellies with a huge helping at the Lodge Restaurant (they call it “adventure nutrition meets local tradition”). Live music will ensue in the field below the lodge\, and although you’ll likely be cracked from the day of pedaling you’ll want to dance the night away with drinks in hand. And it’ll be ok cause the next day’s challenge plays on the word “fun\,” not “difficult.” \nSunday:\nGrab your friends (or enemies)\, take your clue card\, and adventure around the ranch on your bike\, completing challenges in a scavenger hunt-style format. CHILL PACE – WE AIN’T TIMING YOU! Bring your proof of completion back to the Trading Post\, and you’ve conquered the most famous stage farce on the planet. Awards will be given\, laughs will be had\, and then tents will be packed up. And although you will be free to go home\, we can pretty much guarantee you won’t want to. \n  \nWhat’s included? \n“ALL IN” pass includes: \n\nChipped race plate for the time trial on Friday and gravel course on Saturday\nYour name will be entered to win raffle prizes from our partners:  Bearded Goat\, Cafe du Cycliste\, Rapha\, Kuat\, Skratch Labs\, Specialized and many more!\nDinner at the Lodge Restaurant Friday and Saturday nights\nInaugural event tee by Allied Cycle Works\nLive music under the stars\nFossil Cove Beer and other bevvies\nHCR weekend day passes 11/1-11/3\nCamping\nMeteor Aid station and 37 North + Bike Inn SAG support\nCompeting for stage farce podiums announced on Sunday\nPlus lots of RO3 partner surprises\n\n“COMING IN HOT!” pass includes: \n\nChipped race plate for the gravel course on Saturday\nInaugural event tee by Allied Cycle Works\nMeteor Aid station and 37 North + Bike Inn SAG support\nThis ticket is for those who can’t make it on Friday and can only drive in Saturday morning.\nYou can also add the one night camping\, beer\, drinks\, dinner Saturday night and live music if you can stick around!\n\nFriends + Family WEEKEND pass includes: \n\nDinner Friday and Saturday nights\, beer and N/A drinks\, live music\, camping\, and HCR day passes.\n\nKids WEEKEND pass includes: \n\nDinner Friday and Saturday nights\, live music\, camping\, and HCR day passes.\n\nSaturday pass includes: \n\nDinner Saturday night\, drinks\, live music\, camping\, and HCR day pass.\n\nKids Saturday pass includes: \n\nDinner Saturday night\, live music\, camping\, and HCR day pass.\n\n  \nCamping \nCamping is included with the “ALL IN” pass and you can also add one night to the “COMING IN HOT” pass.  It will be located on-site at the event location.  This is a gorgeous open field with plenty of space to pitch a tent\, park your sprinter van or small teardrop trailers.
