The term “Grefillinn” in Icelandic refers to a pickaxe and symbolizes the gravel that has been carved away by the harsh Icelandic highland weather and glaciers, providing a surface to ride on. Additionally, “Hver grefillinn” is a mild exclamation used similar to “What in the blooming hell,” possibly uttered by participants while encountering the scenic views and challenging course.
