WE PLANT THE PATH.

Every year, alongside Osage Passage, we plant milkweed.

It started with a simple idea: if we’re going to celebrate the beauty of this place by riding through it, we should also do something to help protect it.

And right now, that feels especially important.

Oklahoma sits right in the middle of the monarch migration route. Monarchs pass through our state in both spring and fall, and Oklahoma is more than just a place they fly over — it’s an important breeding ground along the way. Milkweed is essential because it’s the only plant monarch caterpillars can eat and the place where monarchs lay their eggs.

And this time of year, something pretty incredible is happening...
The super generation of monarchs is beginning its journey south. Unlike the generations before them, these butterflies can live for months and travel thousands of miles to reach their wintering grounds in Mexico. The fall migration through Oklahoma typically peaks in late September and early October.

That means the little patch of Oklahoma we get to ride through matters.

The milkweed matters.

And the people who choose to care about this place matter.

This year, Jenny at Bustani Plant Farm helped us get our milkweed growing, and artist Rick Sinnett generously shared his artwork in support of monarch conservation.

We’re incredibly grateful for people who believe that protecting a place can be just as meaningful as experiencing it... so when you register for Osage Passage, you’re not just signing up for a ride.

You’re joining us in planting the path.

Come ride the roads.

Come see the landscape.

Come experience Oklahoma at its best.

And if you’d like to help us plant even more milkweed, consider making a donation toward our annual milkweed planting efforts.. check is all out at www.osagepassage.com

Ride the route. Protect the route. Plant the path.. and

The Saint Francis Tulsa Tough Corporate Sportif isn’t just about getting your employees across the finish line... it’s about building a team that rides, celebrates, and has a little fun together. It's about providing your team the chance to have a little recess break during the normal workload.

Every year, we bring our Sportif teams together after the event for one heck of a dinner- featuring food and drinks from some of our incredible sponsors, plenty of laughs, and awards for everything from most participants to best jerseys (and a few categories that get a little more competitive than expected).

It’s one of our favorite nights of the year, and we want your company at the table in 2027.. plus, we had three teams kind of totally dominate the podium this year, and we want them to feel the heat JUST a little 😉

Build your team. Rally your coworkers. RIDE YOUR BIKES. Then come celebrate with us. And the cool part? This year, for the first time ever, your team registration also includes memberships to our ride groups, including our Diva's and Project Dudeman.. feel free to message us on our socials to find out more information.

Just our key point takeaways from 2026

While we’re not quite ready to wish summer away, we are starting to get excited for a weekend of gravel, good friends, campfires, and a little fall weather..

Osage Passage is just around the corner 🍂🚲

For funsies (and maybe a piece of throwback merch for one lucky person), what’s your favorite fall activity? You don’t get brownie points for saying it’s riding with us, but we also won’t disagree

Our hearts at SFTT are with the riders, families, friends, and cycling community mourning the loss of cyclists last night.

Cycling is a community that stretches far beyond our own roads and events-- and tonight, that community is hurting. We’re holding everyone affected in our thoughts and standing with our fellow riders.

If we had a Saint Francis Tulsa Tough book club, this work of art would definitely be on it

There’s something pretty special about riding alongside butterflies.

Inspired by Bicycling with Butterflies, we’ve made planting milkweed alongside Osage Passage an annual tradition. The book is a beautiful reminder that protecting the places we love can start with something as simple as putting a plant in the ground.

Every year, we plant milkweed along the ride because we want Osage Passage to be about more than miles and gravel. It’s about celebrating the landscape, caring for it, and hopefully leaving it a little better than we found it.

Come ride with us through the Osage. Experience the ch*****ne gravel, take in the views, and keep an eye out for the butterflies that call this place home during their migration... and want more info on the butterfly migration, including the story of how Sara Dykman truly cycled alongside them for almost a year? Check out her book, pictured here.
