Spring River Rambler
2026-04-11 08:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Loberg Park, N Spring St, Hardy, AR, 72542, United States
Come have some fun with us April 11th, 2026 in Hardy, Arkansas, along the beautiful Spring River! We wanted to create something fun and inexpensive for people to come do in our little corner of the Ozarks.
The kid’s races are intended to be a great entry into the sport of cycling – no drama, just try to pedal faster than anyone else on the line! Virtually any kind of bikes are welcome… the park is flat and all of the kids course(s) will be on pavement and grass.
The kids will race for prizes in the park, then the adults will do their mostly gravel road rides just for fun! Kid’s Race Categories: 4 and Under, 5 to 7, 8 to 10, and 11 to 12.
13 to 15 year olds can participate in the 18 Mile adult fun ride, and 16 to 17 year olds can participate in the 18 or 32 Mile adult fun rides.
Adult entries include an event t-shirt, a goodie/swag bag, a memento for finishing the ride, and drinks/snacks.

99 Miles of Bad Road is a gravel bicycle race starting and ending in Hardy, Arkansas. Expect every road surface type, with roughly 80% being unpaved. Don’t let the elevation profile of the GPX fool you – expect 10,000 feet of elevation gain. These are relentless rolling hills with an occasional punchy climb or sketchy descent. Everything from mud, dirt, gravel, concrete bridges, clay, crushed limestone, creek rocks, broken pavement, and more. This route earns it’s name. All finishers will receive a cool memento, plus unique custom awards.
Oh, and we also have a 199 Mile route option…
