    We are excited to offer another year of this instant classic gravel event!

    Garden City Gravel will take you through the same course as years past. Headquartered in the 9 Mile Valley, west of Missoula, this route shows you the best of our gravel riding. New for this year we have separate start times for different groups. Also, we are proud to offer a paracyclist category. All age group and category podiums run across the different start times and top 3 will be honored in each. For example if you are in the 50-59 category you can get in the top 3 regardless of your start group. The podiums are based on your ride time, not your relative finish within your ride group.

    New for this year - Garden City Gravel 40

    A beautiful 40 Mile gravel course for folks to train or try their hand at a gravel event. Two laps on the course!

    Buffalo Run 2026 – Set for Saturday, July 11th, 2026!

    The Buffalo Run is part of the fun, family-oriented St. Ignatius Good Old Days event and is hosted by St. Luke Community Healthcare as a way to give back to the community and the St. Ignatius Chamber of Commerce! The 1-mile fun run (walk/run), 4-mile run, and 7-mile run all start promptly at 8 a.m. on Main Street in front of Gambles Hardware (112 N. Main Street, St. Ignatius, MT 59865). While each run takes a different route, they all end back at the same start line, and the course will be marked.

    ENTRY DEADLINES: Regular rates are available until July 9th. All entries after that date will be considered same-day registrations. You can sign up online here or complete and return a paper registration form. Family rates are available if you sign up online. T-shirts are available on a first-come, first-served basis. We cannot guarantee exact sizing, but we will do our best! Same-day registration shirts will be limited to the supply available on race day. Formal same-day registrations will be cut off at 7:30 a.m. the morning of the race, so volunteers can properly assist all race participants. You can still pay cash or check to run your race and buy a shirt, your run just won’t be timed. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

    For more information or if you have questions, please contact Whitney Liegakos at 406-528-5262 or email wliegakos@stlukehealthcare.org.

    We’re excited to see you at the event!
