Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Rule Of Three: Blending Gravel & Grit
Q: What makes Rule of Three unique in its format for riders?
Riders choose one bike at the start and must stick with it for the whole race, with longer routes often requiring gravel bikes, and the course design includes quirky checkpoints and opportunities to train with the Rule of Three 99 practice ride.
The Rule Of Three: Blending Gravel & Grit
Q: How does the registration work and what happens if someone on the waitlist gets in?
Registration is around $43, and if you're on the waitlist, you may be admitted as others drop out; if not, you can volunteer to participate, and volunteer spots also come with swag.
The Rule Of Three: Blending Gravel & Grit
Q: What does Three 99 mean to you, Andy?
Rule of Three 99 began as a free event called Rule of Free and evolved into a fundraiser for Pedal It Forward, with a minimal registration cost and a policy to refund the fee minus a small bike-rage portion if you show up, while those who don't show can still contribute through donations.
How A Small City Earned Global Headlines
Q: From Visit Bentonville's perspective, it must be thrilling to see headlines and accolades. How did we get here?
Years of strategic planning, ongoing media outreach, and close collaboration with partners and journalists, plus a long-term approach to hosting previews and building itineraries that showcase trails, museums, and local amenities.
Bentonville Moves Coalition’s Push for Safe, Connected Streets
Q: Tell us about the Bentonville Moves Coalition and how it came to be.
The coalition began with Runway Group and Tom Walton, with a dedicated coalition manager joining to accelerate the city's 30 miles of active mobility goals, transforming plans into action.
