Tallgrass Tour taking off Sept. 30 to benefit Marland Children’s Home

Billed as “A Bike Tour You’ll Never Forget,” the Tallgrass Tour on Sept. 30 is a benefit for Marland Children’s Home.

Volunteer crews have already marked the routes and checked for debris, and rest stops have been planned. Rest stop sponsors will compete for Best Rest Stop Sponsor. They’ll supply snacks and water while cheering riders on.

The routes include:

• 5 Kilometer Ride
• 10 Mile Ride
• 25 Mile Ride
• 50 Mile Ride
• 100 Mile Ride
• 100 Kilometer Ride
• 25 Mile Gravel Loop
• 50 Mile Gravel Loop
• 77 Mile Gravel Loop

Registration is $42 before the day of the ride, and then is $45 for same day registration. Tandem riders are asked to register separately. Included in that price is a Tallgrass Tour Dri-fit t-shirt, a Tallgrass Tour water bottle, and a dinner provided to all the riders after their ride. 

All riders will begin at the Ponca City City Hall at 516 East Grand Avenue at 7 a.m. Sept. 30. Maps for each route are posted on https://www.tallgrasstour.com/route .

Tallgrass Tour is funded by local and out of town sponsors. If you would like to sponsor this event you can find more information on the “sponsorships” page.
