Wear Yellow Nebraska Presents 2nd Annual East-West Groveler Gravel Race

If you’re up for a little competition between friends while supporting a great cause, Wear Yellow Nebraska’s (wearyellownebraska.org/groveler) 2nd Annual East-West Groveler Gravel Race is for you. On tap for October 10 to October 18, the “virtual” race format means that cyclists have that week to complete the race route starting and finishing at Parker’s Smokehouse in Ashland. Using the Platte River as the divide, register for a team (either East or West) by 5 p.m. on Friday, October 9 to participate. In an email along with your Strava, RidewithGPS, or Garmin handle, you will need to submit a picture of yourself, with your GPS device showing the time and distance when you finish the race route. The course spans about 40 miles.

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 a photo with your GPS device. Your Strava, Garmin, or RidewithGPS handle will also need to be provided again for verification. On Monday, October 19, Wear Yellow Nebraska will be sharing the results through a live Facebook event (@ WearYellowNebraska).

Wear Yellow Nebraska is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a clear focus on niche initiatives that offer cancer survivors with support that was not otherwise addressed and for people who might otherwise fall through the cracks—truly caring for each individual’s special circumstances.
