Buffalo Bill Rough Rider Gravel Grinder Race - Play North Platte

Buffalo Bill Rough Rider Annual Gravel Grinder Race

Saturday, June 3, 2023

Ready to debunk the myth that Nebraska is flat and boring?

Escape to the great outdoors and join us as you take on the unique scenery of Central Nebraska hills and canyons, thick groves of trees, and native grasses that populate the hill country. You will take paved and dirt roads through Lincoln County and have the opportunity to experience one of Nebraska’s best mountain biking trails, Potters Pasture.
