AgriCrit Is Back and Bike Club NWA Is Taking Over Agri Park
The AgriCrit Summer Series is back, and Bike Club NWA is returning to the University of Arkansas Agriculture Park this summer. Closed-course, grassroots, and built around the dirt and gravel roads of Agri Park, this one’s for riders who like their racing a little rough around the edges.

What’s New This Year
You’ll find a redesigned course this year. The start/finish area now sits at the venue’s pavilion, where you’ll also find check-in, registration, bathrooms, and podium awards.
Parking lines the perimeter of the pavilion, and you can reach the venue in either direction via the Razorback Greenway.
The race format runs A/B/C with combined men and women fields, with podiums going off after the Advanced race concludes.
The Course
Your race is a 1.4-mile clockwise loop with a technical start, a long stretch of double-track on the back side, and a fast, sweeping return into a slight uphill finish. Check out the full route on Strava before race day.
How to Register
Pre-registration through BikeReg is free, with lower prices than day-of. You’ll sign your waiver online and pay cash or Venmo on-site when you arrive. Day-of registration runs $20/$30/$40 for Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced. Check-in closes 15 minutes before each race. Note: alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs are prohibited on the property.
Prizes and Payouts
If you’re entering as a beginner, you’re racing for podium prizes. Intermediate and Advanced riders compete for cash, with payouts going to the top three men and women in each field. The total purse is pulled from entry fees — 60% goes to prize payouts across all races.
About Bike Club NWA
Bike Club NWA was founded to bring the Fayetteville road cycling community back together after the pandemic. What started as an open invitation for Sunday rides through the Ozarks has grown into a full cycling club and race team, the Bike Club Bandits, competing across Arkansas and beyond. The AgriCrit is one of their signature events, and their mission stays the same: bring people together through cycling.
