Description

New Belgium is offering a special $10 discount to Chainlinkers who sign up for this awesome, wacky urban scavenger hunt using the code THECHAINLINK.  For each team that signs up using the code, New Belgium will donate part of the reg to The Chainlink! 

And proceeds of the event also benefit Break The Gridlock and West Town Bikes!

 

Sign up here!

 

The Urban Assault Ride is the biggest Bicycle Obstacle Event series in the nation! Here's how it works: You and your teammate will set out on a city-wide quest for 'checkpoints' on your favorite two-wheeled steeds.  At each checkpoint, you'll drop your bikes and complete a funky/adventurous obstacle course, then remount your bikes and hit the streets for more.

The goal is to complete all the checkpoints in the shortest amount of time. You choose your own route and checkpoint order. This means that the most clever are often the victors. Of course, it may also help if you can pull a mean big-wheel powerslide and fly across an inflatable slip-n-slide ;)

After your pedal-powered adventure, your team will cross the finish line and enter a massive celebration of New Belgium Brewing Co's whimsical ways, bikes, and big wheels. The after party is just as much fun as the ride itself, thanks to the craziest raffle prize contest you'll ever experience. 

Pick a partner and we'll see you there!!

How strange that this is the first I'm hearing about this event and it's only 2 weeks away.
