Sooner Stampede Kids Kup: Why Your Young Rider Will Love This Race!
Clear Bay Trails just got a full professional rebuild - smoother lines, fresh dirt, and brand‑new features designed to make riding more fun than ever. And the Sooner Stampede Kids Kup gets to be the very first youth race on these new trails!
Kids will roll through fast, flowy singletrack built by the same trail pros who design courses for big‑time riders. The laps are short, safe, and packed with excitement - perfect for building confidence, learning skills, and feeling like a real mountain bike racer.
Whether your kiddo is brand‑new to riding or already loves shredding dirt, Kids Kup is all about fun, encouragement, and celebrating young cyclists. Parents cheer, kids grin, and everyone gets to be part of Oklahoma MTB history as the next generation takes on Clear Bay in its debut season.
This is their moment to try something new, feel proud, and be part of the Stampede story. Sign them up and let them experience the joy of racing fresh singletrack!
😋 Food will be available for purchase
🧲 We have horseshoe award medals for the kids!

About Tour de Dirt
Tour de Dirt is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit mountain bike race series celebrating Dirt. Community. Oklahoma. We host competitive, timed XC races across Oklahoma, with divisions for all ages and skill levels. A core part of our mission is Kids Kup, our youth program for riders 12 & under that helps grow the next generation of Oklahoma cyclists. As the longest‑running mountain bike series in the U.S., Tour de Dirt is proud to support local trails, riders, and communities across our state.
How to Race
All Kids Kup racers are required to make a one‑time $5 purchase for a season race plate with an integrated timing chip (replacements only needed if lost or damaged). Please note: this purchase is separate from race registration. 👉 Buy your plate here: Tour de Dirt Race Plates
We are here for you! Our Kids Kup team is here to support your family every step of the way on race day. From check‑in to the starting line to celebrating at the finish, our volunteers and staff are ready to guide your rider, answer questions, and make sure the experience feels smooth, safe, and fun. We’re here to help your young racer shine.
We’re proud that the 2026 Kids Kup series is sponsored by Al’s Bicycles Edmond, a shop deeply committed to youth cycling and the strong‑body, stronger‑mind values that make this program special. Their support helps us create more opportunities for young riders across Oklahoma.
Parents can cheer from the sidelines while the kids' race, explore, and make new friends in a supportive, high‑energy environment.
