Huge Success!!

Thanks to everyone that came out on Saturday, for what we hope to be the first of many alley cats to come! There were 45 people that raced around the seven stops that included Rotory Park, The Alehouse, New Arboretum, Zumiez, Hot Topic, Rosauers and The Humane Society. Racers had to go to each stop and complete either a task of some sort or get a signature from one of our wonderful volunteers that helped us out. At Rosauers, racers had to purchase three cans of cat food which they brought to the Humane Society to donate. Below are pictures from racers having to eat hot wings from the Alehouse.

The race ended at one of the organizers house where good times were had by all. In the men's field, which included 41 people, Issac finished the 12 mile course in about 47 minutes, with Emmet, 2nd, and Charlie Olsen, 3rd, close behind. Geoff Hall and Conrad Piper-Ruth duked it out for 4th and 5th down the grueling dirt road driveway finish.

In the women's field, that consisted of 4 racers, Maia Benner finished 1st and 7th overall. Behind her was Autumn in 2nd and Renee in 3rd. For both the men's and women's fields, 1st place received a cash prize of $50, 2nd place received $30 and 3rd place received $10. We had a killer raffle afterwards for all participating entrants, that included prizes from The Alehouse, tons of great bike prizes from Paradise Creek Bicycles here in downtown Moscow, Smith sunglasses, Bell helmets, and other great prizes.

Thanks again for everyone that showed up, The Alehouse, Paradise Creek Bicycles, and our volunteers. We will keep everyone informed on when the next alley cat will happen. We are thinking about middle to late September 2008....see you all then!!
