2020.....buh bye!
Who doesn’t love a little rivalry… a little competition between friends and supporting a great cause while you’re doing it?
We do! And that’s why we want you to join us for the 3rd annual East-West Groveler Race. Using the Platte River as our divide, you will be able to register to join the East team or the West team depending on which side of the river you live.
When: Saturday, October 16th, 2021
Where: 1241 Silver St, Ashland, NE 68003-1841
Route: 40ish miles (GPX Coming on Friday, October 15th)
Divisions: East - racers living east of Platte River, West - racers living on west of Platte River
Lunch: Provided by BW's Pub & Grill on the Move
Fees: $35 per racer and you must register by 5:00 PM on Wednesday, October 13th. $40 day of registration.
Rules: The Team with the lowest number of points wins! Once registration closes, team size will be set by the lowest number of participants signed up for the east or west team. Finishers receive a point equal to their finish position based on the finishing time provided in the photo with your GPS device Your Strava, Garmin or RidewithGPS handle will also need to be provided for verification.
As a bonus for some of our diehard riders, a point will be subtracted for single speed category, fat tire, and to encourage our female friends to get out and ride gravel with us, female team finishers. This means more pictures! Share what you rode the route on with us for points.
Tiebreaker will go to the largest team, so everyone counts! The highest-scoring team will be groveling about their gravel loss until next year!!
The East sits at 2-0, bringing the trophy to the Omaha Trek Store. Will it remain there, or will the West team avenge their loss and take the trophy and bragging rights to Lincoln?
The Groveler is presented by Trek Omaha & Wear Yellow Nebraska. Proceeds will be donated to Wear Yellow Nebraska and designated for Lincoln services if the west team wins or Omaha if the east team wins.
