Conquer the Hills, Conquer the Heat
There are rides that tout their heat, and there are rides that tout their hills. Then there is the Norman Conquest, the toughest metric century in Oklahoma, where we say, “Conquer the Hills, Conquer the Heat,” because cyclists who do both can conquer just about anything.
The Norman Conquest has been challenging cyclists from across the state and around the country to take on the July heat and overcome the Eastern Cleveland County hills for a quarter century and the event is now a summertime rite of passage. But if conquests are not really your style, there are more civilized options, such as our 46- and 23-mile routes.
Regardless of how far riders ride, everyone is invited to the afterparty, where burgers are hot, drinks are cold and door prizes abound.
And when the day is over, everyone will have helped raise thousands to support the J.D. McCarty Center’s mission to teach children with developmental disabilities the skills they need to participate, contribute, and find fulfillment in their lives.
