Organiser's Description

The Red River Riot
The Original. The Definition of Long, Hard & Dirty.

Since 2010, this is the ride that started everything for Spinistry. The Red River Riot isn't just another gravel event; it's the foundation of our philosophy. It defines our motto: Long, Hard & Dirty.

Staging from the spectacular 4R Ranch Vineyards and Winery, this event plunges you into the heart of the "North Texas Hill Country" north of Muenster. Forget what you think you know about Texas flatlandsthis region delivers relentless rollers, rugged terrain, and stunning vistas.

The Challenge
Make no mistake: this is NOT a beginners' ride. We offer three distances, and none of them are easy. This is a test of grit, endurance, and self-reliance.

Route Options: 100 Miles, 100 Kilometers (62 miles), and 45 Miles.
Self-Supported Ethos: This is considered a self-supported ride. You are responsible for your own navigation, mechanicals, and well-being. We will provide neutral water tables along the route, but come prepared to take care of yourself.
Navigation: All distances will be marked, but we highly recommend all riders also utilize a GPS unit for navigation, just in case.
The Venue
Enjoy the incredible hospitality and scenery of the 4R Ranch Vineyards and Winery. Its the perfect spot to stage a brutal day in the saddle and celebrate your survival afterward.
