Ozarks Arkansas BDR-X

The upcoming Ozarks BDR-X is a 450-mile backcountry adventure route through the Ozark–St. Francis National Forest of northwest Arkansas. Riders will experience some of the very best riding in The Natural State, traveling through dense, lush forests, crossing pristine rivers, passing towering rock cliffs, and carving through scenic twisty pavement.

Carefully designed for adventure and dual-sport riders, this highly anticipated route features flowing dirt roads, primitive two-track, dozens of water crossings, and 10 optional advanced sections,  the most of any BDR route to date.

Riders throughout Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and the greater Midwest now have a world-class adventure route right in their backyard.

See the links below for more information about the route, and save the date for the route release celebration on April 2. Join us in person at Mach 1 Powersports in Rogers, Arkansas, or tune in to the live YouTube broadcast and film premiere to be part of the launch from anywhere.
