Red Dirt Divas represent female cyclists at Land Run 100

S ava n n a h E va n o f f En t e rta i nme n t Edi tor

They call them the divas.

Stillwater’s male cyclists refer to the female cyclists as a shortened version of the Red Dirt Divas. Many members of this women’s cycling group will compete with 141 women in District Bicycles’ Land Run 100 race at 8 a.m.

Saturday in Stillwater.

Crystal Wintle, co-owner of District Bicycles, said about 850 people will compete in the fourth annual race.

The Land Run 100 is a solo, nonstop 50- and 100mile bicycling race on gravel and dirt roads that begins and ends at Seventh and Husband streets, Wintle said.

“One of the things I like most about riding gravel is when you hit gravel there’s just like this crunching noise of the tire on the gravel that’s

so unique,” said Sara Siems, state extension assistant at Oklahoma State. “ … Your tires hit that gravel, and your endorphins just elevate because you know you’re about to experience something you don’t experience in any kind of other riding.”

In 2015, 87 women competed in the Land Run 100, and nine finished because of bad weather. Six of the women who finished were from Stillwater, and all of them placed in their category, Siems said.

Wintle founded the Red Dirt Divas shortly after starting District Bicycles a little more than four years ago, Wintle said.

“When we moved here, I really wanted to focus on building a women’s community, kind of like a support system,” Wintle said. “I think it’s a really big deal for women to mentor one another and build each other up.”

There are more than 283 members in the Red Dirt Divas private Facebook group.

Gabbi Shelton, a mechanical engineering junior, said the women use the Facebook page as a way to coordinate

bicycle rides and support one another.

“All the guys that we ride with are like, ‘The divas this, the divas that,’” Siems said.

“It’s almost a satirical name because we are such downto-earth, regular women that it’s kind of tongue-in-cheek.”

The name might not be serious, but the riders are. Gina Peek, assistant professor in design, housing and merchandising, said riding on gravel takes more strength and ability to navigate because the terrain has more obstacles.

The gravel on which bikers ride is dynamic; it can be hard-packed dirt that is “dry as a bone” or “thick and slushy,” Siems said. It’s draining to ride on newly laid gravel, Shelton said.

“If you’ve ever seen ‘The Price is Right,’ they have that game Plinko, and you’re kind of like that,” Shelton said. “You are all over the road … just bouncing everywhere.”

This year, Shelton will compete in the Land Run 100 for the first time. Peeks, Murray and Siems have competed before and said their main goal is to finish

the race.

Although the number of Stillwater cyclists increases, Siems said women are underrepresented in the sport.

Women may not participate in the sport because of the financial investment or because they can’t justify sacrificing the time, Wintle said.

Elizabeth Murray, a children’s librarian at the Stillwater Public Library, said she never regrets going on a ride no matter how challenging it is to fit into her schedule.

Although the men outnumber women in the Land Run 100 and the Stillwater cycling community, Siems said they are supportive of

Opinion: Ford era reaching sad ending

N at h a n Ruiz Se n io r S p o rts R eport er

It’s my job to be honest with you, so that’s what I’m going to do: I like Travis Ford.

The guy puts so much passion and effort into his job. We should all aspire to work as hard at what we do as Ford does.

He cares about his play-

ers growing, not only as athletes, but also as men.

He has three children and a wife, all of whom have become a central part of Stillwater during the past eight years.

But charisma, kindness and fatherhood don’t help you keep a job as a basketball coach; winning does.

Sometime in the coming days or even weeks, Ford likely will no longer be the Oklahoma State men’s basketball coach. He will be looking for a new job for himself and a new home for his family.

For the price of $7.2 million, he will be told that he’s not good enough

at his job.

This isn’t in defense of Ford, nor is it in promotion of his impending firing.

It’s to consider how sad this all is.

Ford committed eight years of his life to OSU, Stillwater and various players, sharing embraces, high fives and smiles with a community after a variety of victories.

It’s sad to see the thirdwinningest coach in program history get shoved out the door.

The Cowboys fought until the end of every game. They were inches from upsetting Oklahoma.

They made their lone

postseason game interesting in the final minute after trailing by 18. Hell, they somehow beat Kansas. All despite not being remotely close to healthy less than a handful of games into the season.

It’s sad to see a group of players that never quit not get rewarded with more wins.

A stadium once considered the rowdiest arena in the country featured more visible orange plastic than orange fabric.

It’s sad to see a fan base that cares so passionately fade away.

A man, maybe more, will lose his job. A family will be uprooted. A

group of players will be left without their chief.

A once-great basketball program is hardly what it was a decade ago.

It’s a sad way for this to end. f o l l o w n at h a n : @ n at h a n s r u i z

The New York Project Returns Richard Tuttle: A Print Retrospective on exhibit at the OSU Museum of Art is the second in the New York Project series of exhibitions.

This series explores key New York artists of the past 50 years.

“The New York Project is designed to provide an extraordinary opportunity for our audience to interact with world-renowned artists and view exhibitions usually exclusive to metropolitan museums,” says Victoria Berry, OSU Museum of Art director.

Access to these pieces wouldn’t be possible without support from the Friends of the Museum, and one particular OSU Alumnus who is making the New York Project possible. Bill Goldston graduated from OSU with a bachelor of fine arts degree and is the director of

Universal Limited Art Editions in New York.

“When I was a young art student at OSU, there was no place for a student to see what was happening in the New York art scene,” Goldston says, “I promised myself when I graduated if I made anything of my life, I would share my good fortune with OSU students. The New York Project is one way I can share some of the New York art scene with the students of OSU.” Tuttle, whose work can be found in major collections, is perhaps best know for his printmaking. A Print Retrospective is the first comprehensive survey of Tuttle’s prints, this exhibition reveals the artist’s profound interest in the ambiguous and transitional nature of the art form of printmaking.

BOB SERVICE LAUNCHED BOB, OSU’s Big Orange Bus, began providing OSU Alum and Universal Limited Art Editions Director Bill Goldston visits with OSU President Burns Hargis and First Cowgirl Ann Hargis at “An Ode to Hands: Selections from the Permanent Collection” exhibition in the OSU Museum of Art.

“Tuttle’s prints stimulate intellectual and creative insights that are a great inspiration for students and Oklahoma’s art community,” says Christina von Rotenhan curator of the exhibition.

Richard Tuttle: A Print Retrospective will be on view through May 7. The exhibition is organized by the OSU Museum of Art in collaboration with the Bowdoin College Museum of Art in Maine.

More information about this exhibition and other events can be found at museum. okstate.edu.

“I came to OSU in 2008 for a year and a half and then in December of 2009 I went to Navy boot camp in Great Lakes, Illinois. I was an Operations Specialist for the Navy. In May of 2010 I went to the USS Boxer in San Diego and that is where I spent the four years for the two deployments I went on. I got done with my last deployment in April of 2014 and I was back here in August. I graduate next December. I have friends all over the states now. The best part was not only meeting interesting people but getting to travel the world. I have been to Singapore, Thailand, Hawaii, Israel, Dubai and Bahrain. I loved getting to serve my country and doing my part to keep the country free.”
