MASHscow: Lets Get Ready!

Q & A

What is an Alleycat race?

A typical alley cat mimics the rapid, multi-stop, cross-town daily treks of messengers. Alley cats are open to anyone and everyone who arrives at the starting location with the appropriate entry fee. Racers get an envelope--the contents of which remain a complete mystery until the commencement of race festivities. All you know going into the race is that the envelope contains a series of stops, at which various tasks must be completed. Also the winner is not always the fastest, as knowing the lay of the town in which you are racing is key to victory.

Where will you know to go?

Organizers will give the checkpoints/manifest 10-60 minutes before the start of the race. This allows the rider (you) to choose the best route. After you get the manifest the racer thinks and plans the quickest route to a series of checkpoints. The type of bike you choose to race on is irrelevant. Fixies, road bikes, mountain bikes, cruisers, whatever, just show up with something you can pedal.

How can I get registered?

Registration will begin at 1 pm and last till start time. Race starts right at 2pm, so don’t be late.
