Green Lake Grinder/Matt Matyas Memorial – June 1st, 2024 @11AM
The Green Lake Grinder is put on by Speedway Cycles with help from The Alaska Endurance Association. This roughly 40mi event will take place on Saturday June 3rd at 11am on JBER, utilizing some of the best terrain in the Anchorage Bowl, featuring beautiful scenery and rolling hills. The start/finish will take place at the Green Lake Chalet and there will be a neutral start for the first several miles. All riders must follow the rules of the road, as we are controlling riders rather than traffic. There is very little traffic, and the speed limit is usually 25mph.
We will have a catered lunch at the chalet afterwards but we haven’t finalized the menu.
Male and Female categories only, no age divisions.
We suggest all racers carry bear spray for safety reasons.
A few things to remember. First and foremost, the race can be cancelled due to military exercises at any time. Refunds will be given. Second, we need you to sign up immediately. All racers must be registered by 9PM, May 11th. Family members who would like to come on base must also supply driver’s license and birth dates at time of online registration, no exceptions. All info has to be turned over to JBER for the background check. Please remember this is a military installation, so do not bring illegal substances/weapons to the gate!
Access must be through the Boniface Gate only, which is the quickest route to Green Lake (approx. 10 minute drive). PLEASE DO NOT TAKE PICTURES OF THE FLIGHT LINE!
Cost is $60
Food will be served immediately following the race.
Online: Ends 5/11/2024 at 9pm AKST.
