Welcome to Arkansas’ Largest Cycling Tour! The BDB 100 attracts around 3,500 cyclists from across the nation and multiple countries around the world each year. The Big Dam Bridge 100 is an annual Little Rock, Arkansas event that celebrates the “Big Dam Bridge” over the Arkansas River. The 4226-foot bridge is the longest bridge built for pedestrian and bicycle traffic in North America. It connects over 15 miles of scenic riverside trails between Little Rock and North Little Rock. It also serves as the backbone for connecting over 70,000 acres of various city, county, state & federal parks.
The Big Dam Bridge 100 offers several routes ranging between 15 and 100 miles, with beautiful mountain and river scenery, as well as a few challenging hills on the longer routes. The event provides participants with marked courses, well-stocked aid stations, great volunteer support, event t-shirt, a unique finisher medal, post-ride food and drinks along with a unique finish-line experience. The event finish line ends in Northshore Riverwalk Park in downtown North Little Rock on the beautiful Arkansas River with a BDB100 block party and live music.
