We share how Maverick Criterium grew from a lunch idea to a true city race weekend, with campus corners under the lights, a revamped downtown sprint, and a bigger prize purse. We break down last year’s wins and messes, the new categories, neutral support, and why community buy-in matters.
• year-one highlights and hard lessons
• permits, signatures, and city partnerships
• campus course design and OU collaboration
• downtown crowd energy and safety choices
• weather delays and real-time fixes
• Porsche pace cars and protocols
• 2026 updates: new categories, night racing
• revised downtown course for growth
• Fondo, 10-mile ride, beer mile
• host homes for teams and how to help
• volunteers, weeknight tune-up crits
• neutral support details and free-lap basics
• prize purse increase to 15,000 dollars
• why Maverick is the perfect Tulsa Tough tune-up
Come race Maverick. It’s before Tulsa. There’s gonna be people here that I know you want to beat.
