WHA-HOO!

More than a hundred people turned out for the perfect day for a bike ride and the Scavenger Hunt went off without a hitch.

Great pics from the event can be found here .

We want to thank:

-Beyond the Edge for a killer venue.
-Yazoo Brew for making sure everyone that registered (and was of legal age) got a free beer
-all of the sponsors who gave so much for prizes
-The Nashville Roller Girls

We would also like to dearly thank our volunteers that gave up riding to help make sure this thing ran well. Hollie, Annette, Melanie, Anj, Gracie and Megan. Thank you so much.

Look for more bike fun in the coming months, but for now we need to rest.

Thanks!
-Scavenger Hunt Crew.

A Spectacular Cycling Event !!!

Update: Photo task lists will be issued when the team captain checks in the team at on-site registration. The earlier your team checks in, the longer you will have to plan your route prior to the 1:00pm start. On-site registration and swap meet open at 11:00am.

The 2nd annual Nashville Scavenger Hunt & Poker Run is scheduled for April 26, 2009. On-site registration and swap meet open at 11:00 A.M. Scavenger Hunt rolls at 1:00 P.M. sharp! Thanks to all of our great sponsors, this is a FREE event! All ability levels are welcome to participate.

Big thanks to Beyond the Edge for providing the venue again this year.

Please review the event description below and general rules posted on the right side of this page.

Event Description:
Each team (consisting of 3 to 5 riders) will be given a list of @ 30 sites/things around town to be photographed. Each team must furnish their own digital camera with picture review capability. The hunt will start at 1:00pm and all riders must return by 4:00pm. All team members and their bikes must appear in each photo (so it would be a good idea to have a camera with a timer!). Execute as many of the assigned photo tasks as possible within the time limit of the event. The team that captures the most prescribed photos will be declared the winner. All ties will be broken by coin toss/drawing straws.

Food and drink specials !!!!!

Trophies and door prizes will be awarded !!!!!

Come out and show your support for Nashville's recreational cycling community !!!!
