Last weekend, Justin and I hopped on our bikes and joined the Urban Assault Ride in Des Moines. It wasn’t really a race nor a pure social ride, but a combination of both.
The goal was to visit 7 checkpoints around downtown (2 being mystery spots) in any order and as fast as you can. Both riders in a team had to ride a bike and follow all traffic laws. Other than that, anything was fair game. We kind of made up the route last minute and considering the mud on the trail we rode through due to recent flooding, faired alright.
Each stop had a “challenge”, such as human bowling and the end was a big water slide. The free New Belgium beer post race wasn’t bad either. All in all, it was a great time (experience that is)
