SUMMARY:Trail of Tears Remembrance Ride
DESCRIPTION:We remember the Trail of Tears to acknowledge the humanity of those who suffered and the grave injustice committed against sovereign peoples. This remembrance ride is not about assigning collective modern-day guilt\, but about collective modern-day responsibility. History\, unexamined\, repeats its patterns of dehumanization and marginalization.\nRemembrance facilitates essential change and discussion. It forces us to examine how systemic power can be used to silence\, displace\, and erase entire cultures. By confronting this legacy\, we open dialogues about ongoing challenges faced by Indigenous communities today. I challenge every rider to be a beacon of hope and change that inspires society. \nAll entry fees will be donated to the Cherokee Nation Foundation. \nThe Remembrance Ride serves as a respectful complement to the Remember the Removal Ride by focusing on public awareness and broader participation while honoring the latter’s status as a foundational youth leadership program. We also recognize that the Remember the Removal Ride is a much more challenging journey than this event. \nThe Route retraces the Trail of Tears from Pea Ridge\, AR to Tahlequah\, OK. This is a one-way route. If you choose to not complete the out and back route then you are responsible for your own transportation. \nThis is a self-supported ride – riders are responsible for their own food\, water\, navigation\, and repairs. The event will be held on roads that are open to vehicular traffic. Bright colors and bike lights are recommended to improve safety and visibility. \nThe start location = Pea Ridge Bike Camp 10542 Blue Jay Rd\, Pea Ridge\, AR 72751. The Grand Depart will be at 8 AM on June 20th 2026. Participants are encouraged to camp overnight at the Pea Ridge Bike Camp if they would like to.  The cost is $30 and  reservations can be made through Hipcamp.com using the UR code. Cash payments will be accepted on-site. Outdoor showers and a bike wash station are available for those opting to camp. There will be courtesy parking available for all participants throughout the weekend at no cost. https://www.hipcamp.com/en-US/land/arkansas-pea-ridge-bike-camp-xryhkd7n?adults=1&children=0&srid=b516f1c2-043f-4057-869f-bddba26de178 \nPlease see the following routes: \n\nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/53659411?privacy_code=5L6GDjQAcRKNRfmTmCfFzDFkCsNHqUTo\nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/53781133?privacy_code=NJcJ8zCVQq5Ht8pcdZwKeQdCHeqoMzAW\nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/53776809\nhttps://ridewithgps.com/routes/54162737\n\nPhat Tire Bike Shop is sponsoring the event: Phat Tire will provide a support van to transport camping gear to the overnight location for semi-supported participants. The van will have limited capacity and is intended to help reduce carried weight for riders. It will NOT function as an official SAG vehicle or follow the slowest rider along the route. Phat Tire staff will also be available at camp locations to provide basic technical support as needed. \nThe main camping areas that the group and the Phat Tire Crew will be staying at is Eagle Bluff Resort = https://www.eaglebluffresort.com/ \n**Once registered I highly recommend reserving a campsite along the Illinois River as these sites are extremely popular during kayaking/rafting season and will book quickly. Please refer to the RideWithGPS links to research camping websites and book online. \nRoute surface description: The section from Pea Ridge to Fayetteville incorporates gravel and paved Greenway. Fayetteville to Tahlequah incorporates singletrack\, chunky gravel roads\, and low-traffic paved roads. If completing the entire route a tire width of 45 mm+ is recommended.

SUMMARY:Monumental Mayhem AMBCS XC Race
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Ozark Off-Road Cyclists for the very first annual Monumental Mayhem XC Race at Hobbs State Park! This race is part of the AMBCS series\, is sanctioned by USAC\, and utilizes Wolf’s Den and Karst Loop Trails. \nAs always\, kids race free (ages 14 & under\, racing in the 14 & under categories) \nThanks to Adventure Subaru’s sponsorship\, these registration fees are covered in a continued effort to make mountain biking more accessible for our youth. Parent Note – Kids will need to hold a one-day or annual USAC license.  AMBCS waives the hard plate fee for junior racers. \nThere is NO on-site registration available. \nAll racers are asked to enter the State Park and follow arrows to event grounds to parking located along Page Sawmill Rd. \nRiders need to check in at registration\, but your wait-time should be minimum. If this is your first race of the season you will need to purchase an AMBCS hard plate for $25. \nRemember that all of the people involved in OORC assisting you on race day are volunteers and have donated their time. Please be courteous and thank them for their volunteerism. \nLunch will be served for all participants/attendees.

SUMMARY:Mitchell's Mountain 5K Trail Race and 1K Dash for Hope
DESCRIPTION:The Reason: This isn’t just another 5k benefit for charity. This race is creating a trail where one didn’t exist. When you run this race\, you become part of a community that believes everyone deserves the opportunity to race and to feel like they have purpose and dignity. \nThe Order of Events: The 1k will start first.  We will celebrate the hard work and bravery of the families and those affected by disability for signing up\, showing up\, and completing the race to the best of their ability.  The 5k will begin shortly after the conclusion of the 1k. \nThe Org: Mitchell’s Mountain serves and supports families affected by autism and other Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. We achieve this through essential respite care\, an upcoming long-term residential community designed for those with severe autism\, and local family events like this race.
