A good time with some like minded folk.

WHAT IS IT: This is an "alleycat" style event. You must have human powered, wheeled transportation (only restrictions). You start at the designated start point. Each rider will be given a playing card. You will travel from point to point. You will be required to perform tasks at each point before you will be given the location of your next point. You must present your card at each checkpoint and have it initialed, after you complete the task, by the person manning that point. The first one to the finish is the winner.

WHERE IS IT: 2010 location TBD

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE: Anyone who can ride a human powered, wheeled vehicle and is confident in their navigation skills in the city on such transportation.

HOW MUCH: No fee for participation.

OTHER INFO: Bring a bike in good working order. What ever you would normally ride with (helmet, flat repair tools, hand pump, map and compass, etc.) You never know what might be required at the check points :-) Remember to ride safe and obey traffic laws. We will have some type of festivities after the finish.

OH what a day for an alleycat

So the weather looks amazing, with temps in the low 70's and sunny, Prizes have been donated by Bike Masters, The Trek Store of Omaha, and The Bike Way.  Thanks to "The D" it looks like we will have spoke cards as souvenirs.   Now I just need helpers to show up at 11 am and people to show up to participate at 11:15.

Hope to see y'all there.  And don't forget about A Sunday In Hell at The Waiting Room later that night.

Great job putting this thing together Sean. Nice to see others in the community donating their time and money to expand the bike culture in the big 'O'. I had a riot. Also, great job getting the prizes together for the finishers. Well done!

I'll have my fall alleycat/scavenger ride put together soon. I'll send out my blog once I have a date picked.

Thanks again for all your hard work.
