Rogers-Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.
The 2022 Rogers Cycling Festival (RCF) is a great way to get out, stay active, and spend time with family while enjoying the beautiful scenery, roads, and trails of Rogers.
In partnership with the City of Rogers, the RCF is a family-friendly event coming Saturday, April 30. Participants are invited to check-in from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at the new Butterfield Stage in Downtown Rogers. Before riding, be sure to check out the many booths set up featuring local businesses and grab complimentary merchandise and accessories.
Every part of the ride is on trails and sidewalks at this year’s RCF and takes place on The Railyard Loop Ride - a 15+ mile ride that loops the entire city of Rogers. Riders are encouraged to track their progress by using the Strava app. View the loop here.
New to this year's festival are mountain biking trails spanning 12+ miles at Lake Atalanta. The city of Rogers, in partnership with the Walton Family Foundation, is unveiling this new trail to provide users of all experience levels with a place to ride in Downtown Rogers. The trails will provide a beginner-level loop counterclockwise around the park, complementing intermediate and advanced-level trails. View a map of the new project here.
Tickets are free for those 10 and under and just $10 for adults, and a portion of the proceeds from the event benefits Arvest Bank's Million Meals Program. The first 300 registered riders will receive a prize pack for participating that includes a medal, headband, and a ticket to “Rider Village” that includes a drink ticket.
Rider Village will be located at the Butterfield Stage in Downtown Rogers and is sponsored by Crossland Heavy Contractors. It features a variety of experiences to relax and have fun after a day of riding in the RCF. Attendees will enjoy various food trucks, drinks, and other entertaining activities.
