- Day 1: Snyder to Elgin - 50 miles
- Ride through the Wichita Mountains Wildlife
Refuge. Watch for the buffalo! Stop at historic Meers for a BIG bite to eat.
- Day 2: Elgin to Hinton - 68 miles
- You'll ride around a couple of lakes and through
Binger, home of baseball star Johnny Bench. Be sure and visit Red Rock Canyon just outside of Hinton. Be warned,
the ride out of the canyon is not for the faint of heart and weak of legs.
- Day 3: Hinton to Kingfisher - 56 miles
- Imagine yourself on a cattle drive along the old
Chisholm Trail. You'll also be on many miles of historic Route 66.
- Day 4: Kingfisher to Perkins - 73 miles
- Be sure and stop in Oklahoma's territorial capitol
of Guthrie and visit some of the historic shops downtown. Perkins is the home of Pistol Pete, the mascot for the
Oklahoma State University Cowboys.
- Day 5: Perkins to Pawnee - 45 miles
- A short day because you had a long, tough ride
the day before. Take your time and enjoy the scenery before ending in one of FreeWheel's all-time favorite host
communities.
- Day 6: Pawnee to Ponca City - 65 miles
- Familiar territory and a beautiful ride around
Kaw Lake. Ponca City is another FreeWheel favorite.
- Day 7: Ponca City to South Haven, KS - 40 miles
- You'll be able to see more sections of the historic
Chisholm Trail, while riding on new roads. A pleasant final day to the week.
