Thunderhawk Wide Open

About the Event

Gather at John Lopez's Famous Kokomo Inn Gallery & Sculpture Garden for an unforgettable start to your adventure. Roll out onto Lemmon’s Main Street where the journey through North Dakota, South Dakota, and the Standing Rock Reservation awaits you. Navigate over remote gravel roads, rugged minimum maintenance trails, and prairie two-track paths that offer a true sense of wide-open spaces.
The landscape will tempt even the most seasoned racers to slow down and appreciate the scenery. As you near the finish line, descend Main Street where the crowd's cheers, cowbells, live music, and the vibrant finish line view await. Find your spot in the Kokomo Sculpture Garden for a moment of respite under the shade.
Indulge in Saint Larry’s oak wood fire-smoked barbacoa tacos made from locally raised bison and quench your thirst with a frosty Lost Cabin Beer while enjoying live music performances. Stay to cheer on fellow riders as they cross the line, all part of the Thunderhawk Wide-Open Festival and Art Fair featuring local artists.
Experience the unique blend of wide-open spaces, rich western history, vibrant culture, art, and lively entertainment that makes this event a must for any adventure enthusiast.
