OK folks the Quad Olympics Committee has finalized the events for this years Quad Olympics.
There will be four events starting after lunch.
[glow=red,2,300]1. Blindfolded two-person obstacle coarse relay.
For the first event you will need to find a partner prior to the event. If you need help with this we can match you up on Saturday. You and your partner will decide whose bike to ride. One person will start on the bike blindfolded while your partner gives you driving directions walking behind you. You will weave through a series of cones, over an obstacle, and stop in a painted circle. Switch riders and come back. We will do two teams at a time and you are racing against the clock.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]2. Barrel Roll Relay
This event is still under test and tune but will most likely make the final cut. We will randomly assign partners for this event. You and your partner will line up about 30 yards across from each other and one will push / roll the barrel with the front of your quad to the other person. Then get out of the way and your partner rolls the barrel back across the finish line. Again this is a timed event.[/glow]
[glow=green,2,300]3. Water Balloon Relay
For this event we can either keep the same partners as event 2 or re-match everyone up. The concept will be similar to last year with a twist. [/glow]
[glow=yellow,2,300]4. Mud Bog Challenge
This years host Ken Hansen has a great spot for the 4x4 mud bog challenge. We need to do some testing on the bog for sport quads or choose an alternate location. Either way there will be a 2 wheel drive and 4x4 competition.[/glow]
I am working on some getting some plaques for the winners of the events.
Lunch will be provided around 11:30 - 12:00.
This is a family event so as always the kids are welcome. We will have them participate in some of the events seperately.
Bring your lawnchairs if needed.
Post here if you have any questions.
We are leaving the Davenport UBC parking lot at 9:00AM on Saturday 5/20, I plan to arrive at Ken's farm about 9:45...
