Well, it's been 33 years since I lived in Tulsa, so my view may need some updating. I lived south of downtown about 6 miles, not far off the river. My experience was that people weren't used to bikes in the road, making commuting a bit harrowing at times. The path along the river was great, making it possible to limit the amount of time I was on streets for my commute. People there tended to be very friendly, though, so I don't remember ever having any negative encounters - just some times where traffic was moving pretty fast and close. I don't expect the geology and surround area roads to have changed much. The better riding is to the east of the city, toward (and into) Arkansas. If you like gravel, you'll have more options.
