Over 200 Washington, D.C. Residents Will Participate in Wacky Bike Race Throughout the City

Sept. 28, 2011 - PRLog -- The Urban Bike Adventure is an off-beat bike race made up of obstacle-dodging, scavenger-hunting and road-racing events. Participants will compete in teams of two or three to post the fastest time in completing checkpoints and earn top prizes. The adventure tour hits the streets of D.C. on Saturday, Oct. 1.

Washington, D.C. was chosen as a stop on the Urban Bike Adventure tour because of the city’s rich history and continual growth as a bike-friendly city. The tour includes ten major cities throughout the country, including Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Baltimore, Charleston, Tampa and Miami. This is the inaugural year for the Urban Bike Adventure created by Jason Kelly.

The Urban Bike Adventure is designed for participants of all skill levels. From the casual biker to the commuter to the triathlete; everyone can participate in this race. “Most teams participate just for the laughs and memories of discovering the city in a new way, but some will compete to win it all,” Kelly said, “either way, a lot of our participants will forget they’re even in a race and just have fun.”

Check-in will begin at 9 a.m. at Lounge 201 at 201 Massachusetts Ave. N.E. Online registration is available at http://www.urbanbikeadventure.com.
