If you love the Amazing Race, this is for you! Here's your chance to participate in Atlanta's Urban Dare challenge. With more than six months to the challenge, you'll need to be on point with your Atlanta knowledge.
Getting Ready for Urban Dare
Urban Dare is the race where smarts can beat speed. You will be solving clues to find checkpoints around town. You need to figure out the most efficient order to proceed. We encourage you to call friends for help solving clues, and you may use your hand-held devices at will. You should bring a phone, a digital camera (can be your phone), a map, and a pen to take notes. You will cover about 5 miles and face fun dares along the way. Dares are a combination of mental, physical, or just plain silly challenges.
Start/Finish
Midtown Tavern - 554 Piedmont Ave NE
Because some people just like to dress up!
If you have a team costume, you do not have to wear Urban Dare shirts. We will have prizes for best costume and for best picture. Let the fun begin!
Urban Dare Atlanta COST
Check-in begins at 11:00 a.m. and will continue up to the start of the race at noon.

Feel free to call me with any questions!

Of course, this is the same day as pillow fight day. How long it is? Maybe I can do both.
I went to go register and now the website is showing Oct. 16 as the Atlanta date. Anybody know anything about this? They have San Diego in the April 3rd spot now. Weird.
I saw this as well today. They've pushed the date back to October. Not sure why, but I will be sending out an email to let everyone know.
Woohoo, now I can go . Please change the registration date when you can. Thanks
how much do you win and how much do they withhold from the prize pool..... at least 85% of the money should be in the prize pool..... i am an atlanta native and know my way around the shortcuts and backroads...

Im new in ATL, but I know strategies, land navigation and other high speed military tactics. I need a partner, anyone? Let me know. And why are we going to this place tomorrow? Isnt the race in 6 months? Is this just pre-registration, or is the race tomorrow? Someone please let me know so I can get my game on.

I wanted to do this year but the registration fee was too high and on pillow fight day. Hopefully not the case in 2010.
