Hey does anybody knows if the alley cat race this friday is going to be free and do you register.....

reply

i think it's going to be free, you just gotta register..

from facebook:

We gladly invite you to our 3rd year Alleycat Race welcoming the Bicycle Film Festival, 10 Year Anniversary.

The World Premier of "To Live and Ride in L.A." will be screened @ 9:30pm at the "Downtown Independent Theatre", right after the race.

If you recall, last year we hosted the successfull "Tour De Cinema" Alleycat, where racers had to race to many different movie theatres around the Los Angeles area.
...
This year we are proud to have teamed up with TRAFIK (http://www.trafikpictures.com/) and decided to flip the theme up just a little bit.

"Movie Mayhem" will consist of 6 Checkpoints throughout the surrounding Downtown area. Obviously, the theme for this Alleycat will be "Movies".
Racers will have to be knowledgeable of L.A. famous movie landmarks, quotes, actors, movie trivia, etc. Speed may not be a factor in winning, but your knowledge of "movies" will most likely bring you into 1st Place.

Since we're keeping this Alleycat as "Messenger Style" traditional as possible, we will not be giving out the nature of the course. But, here's a little hint....keep the following six movies in mind and study them well:

Six Checkpoints:
- COLORS
- SPUN
- DIE HARD
- MI VIDA LOCA
- TRAINING DAY
- BORN in EAST L.A.


START/FINISH will be at the Downtown Independent Theatre http://www.downtownindependent.com/

Register @ 6:30p
Race @ 7:30p SHARP

Prizes will be given out to:
1s, 2nd & 3rd Place Overall
1st Place Female
1st Place Youth (17yrs under)
and of course DFL (Dead Freakin' Last)

SPONSORS:
