TULSA, Okla. — It's time again for the "craziest three days of bike racing in America" right here in Tulsa.
From June 7-9, bikers from across the country will take to the streets of the city for a weekend of competition, music, and community in the 2024 Saint Francis Tulsa Tough.
There's something for everyone to do at Tulsa Tough. Companies can enter the corporate challenge, and there's also a race for kids nine and under.
Gran Fondo or "Big Rides" distances range from 35.6 miles to 101.8 and are for the most experienced racers.
If competitive races aren't for you, The Williams Townie is a 5.8-mile bike ride through the heart of downtown on June 9.
Saint Francis President and CEO talked about what the partnership with the race means for the hospital:
