From the organizers
The Butterfield Buster Gravel Ride
Ride History. Cross State Lines. Bust Some Gravel.
Saddle up for a two-state gravel adventure that traces a genuine slice of the American frontier! The Butterfield Buster takes you along significant segments of the legendary Butterfield Overland Mail stagecoach route, starting from Whitesboro, Texas. The long route crosses the Red River, and loops into Oklahoma before heading back.
Expect a true mixed-surface adventure featuring rural county roads, hidden gravel gems, scenic dam crossings, and paved connectors as you navigate the path once traveled by stagecoaches in the late 1850s.
Whether you are looking for a fun introductory gravel grinder or a self-navigated century challenge, we have a route for you.
