Year 3 for the New Belgium Brewing Urban Assault Ride in Des Moines promises to be a GREAT time!
WHERE WILL YOU BE ON AUGUST 12th?
Des Moines - Sunday August 12th 2012
This will be the 3rd year that the Urban Assault Ride has touched down in Des Moines.
2010, the
1st UAR in Des Moines was the biggest inaugural UAR ever....and more
beer was consumed than any other event. In 2011, we came really really close to capping out! In fact the actual quote from Josh was "This was the most beer consumed before the ride". Go figure... Beer drinkin' Bike ridin' Iowans...
It is a blast to see the crazy bikes and costumes that show up!
On August 12th, Des Moines may
very well experience the biggest UAR in the world. You better be there.
I believe the cap is 2000 this year, so sign up ASAP!
ABOUT UAR
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!!
