SUMMARY:Green Lake Grinder / Matt Matyas Memorial
DESCRIPTION:Green Lake Grinder/Matt Matyas Memorial – May 17th\, 2025@11AM \nThe Green Lake Grinder is put on by Speedway Cycles/Corvus Cycles with help from The Alaska Endurance Association. This roughly 40mi event will take place on Saturday May 17th 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. \nWe will have a catered lunch at the chalet afterwards but we haven’t finalized the menu. \nMale and Female categories only\, no age divisions. \nWe suggest all racers carry bear spray for safety reasons. \nA 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.
