High Plains Gravel Grinder | 2018 Results

Since the days of riding big wheels on the cul-de-sac that whenever you put a group of fast folks together a race is invariably going to break out! We certainly want to recognize and support that the best we can, but the primary mission of this event currently is raising money for the Parks & Recreation. With any luck we can grow this thing into something that can also reward these awesome athletes.
