Tour de Dirt rolls into the NEW Purcell Lake Trails on Sunday, June 7! Presented by Native Soil Productions, this race brings fresh dirt, big fun, and your final shot at points before the summer break. Don’t sit this one out - next chance isn’t until Fall. There will be a food truck on site to feed that post race (or participant) hunger! 🔴 About the Heart of Oklahoma XC RacePurcell Lake MTB Trail is located on the west side of Purcell Lake and extends south and east along Chandler Road within the Purcell Lake property. This is a natural, non‑paved trail system designed specifically for mountain biking. The trail winds through a mix of prairie grassland, scrub brush, wooded sections, and lakeshore terrain, with subtle elevation changes that create unique views of the lake and surrounding native landscape. The current trail offers more than five miles of fast, flowy single‑track hard‑pack dirt, with occasional rock features and a few larger hill drops. 🏆 About Tour de DirtTour de Dirt is a nonprofit mountain bike race series run by racers for racers, celebrating Dirt.
