OZARK ENDURO LITE

Gravity for All!

Welcome to the Ozark Enduro Lite Series produced by Arkansas Race Solutions. Our mission is to create a fun, welcoming, all-inclusive race environment. Bringing “Gravity to All”, our races will be focused on beginner to intermediate level enduro with a mix of fun and feisty designed to challenge more advanced riders for speed while allowing new to enduro or less advanced riders to test the waters of gravity sports. This is a 3 race summer series consisting of 6-8 segments depending on the venue. The course will be set up for Saturday morning pre-ride with race days being Sunday morning. The goal is to finish up racing in time to beat the heat. On race day, you can expect tunes being played by OZ Underground and food trucks on site for refueling. Don't want to race but still want to be a part of race day? We rely heavily on volunteers and can place you in the middle of the action marshaling the race segments.

Info

How does a enduro race work?

Fantastic question! Enduro racing is primarily downhill timed segments, ranging anywhere from just less than a minute per stage to up to 5-6 minutes. A typical Ozark Enduro LITE race will consist of 6-8 downhill segments. Your time will start when you enter the top of a segment and will end when you reach the bottom of that segment. There will be connecting route to transition between the segment that will not be timed. After completing all the downhill segments, your total time will be compared with the times of other riders to see how you did. You should be capable of riding up to 10 miles of NWA green and blue level trails in a single ride. Participants must have race year age of 11 or older. If you would like to accompany a participant without racing, you can sign up as a non-timed “ride buddy'‘ for a small fee.

What do I need to bring?

You will be required to have a fully functional mountain bike with off-road tires and a proper fitting certified helmet. Other recommended items are gloves, eye protection, knee pads, elbow pads. We also strongly encourage carrying the necessary items for minor bike repair.

There will be aid stations, however, it is important to carry enough water and nutrition to last throughout the race. Typical durations will be anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on the course and rider ability. Expect races to cover 8 to 10 miles with up 1000 feet of total climb. We must go up to go down.

VOLUNTEER

None of these races would be possible without volunteers. Volunteer help will be needed at every race, and we would love to make you a part of our event and give you some cool swag. There will be multiple volunteer opportunities such as helping at an aid station, course marshaling, and race setup and tear down.
