The Solstice Gravel Grinder is in its eighth year as a premier grassroots Nebraska gravel grinder that starts and ends in Beatrice NE on June 22nd, 2024. This ride will journey through the communities of Virginia, Lewiston, Burchard, Pawnee City, Liberty, Blue Springs, Holmesville, and Beatrice. The riders will experience all kinds of gravel roads from flat to hilly and super hilly. And just because we know you want adventure, we will even throw in a few MMR's. The Solstice Hundy field will be limited to 140 riders. We will also be offering a couple of shorter route options. A 60+ mile gravel grinder, called Solar Fiddy, and it will be limited to 160 riders total. And we will be offering a shorter 50K (35ish miles) route, The Kindler for those that want to experience gravel for the first time. It will follow some of the same roads as the other routes, and also mix in a bit of the newly completed Chief Standing Bear Trail. It will be limited to 100 riders.

 Our goals are to provide a quality event for everyone at a great value. We love to give back to the biking community. We tend to donate almost everything we make off of this event to various youth groups, and to the maintenance of the trail systems in Southeast Nebraska. Last year we provided a bike repair station for the Barneston Trailhead of the Chief Standing Bear Trail.
