Congratulations to Ashleigh David and Rino Cacchione of Moop for winning, once again, Urban Dare Orlando in an impressive time of 1:40:53.
The Crazies came in second with a time of 1:49:52, and Dead Weight edged out Psychadelic Mayonnaise by 8 seconds to gain 3rd place.
I've learned that sometimes there is more than one correct answer to a clue. That was the case with where Wile E Coyote gets his stamps. When I laid out the race, I saw Ace Rubber Stamp & Sign located on Colonial Ave, one block from Mills going towards NY Deli.
When I was vetting the clues I discovered Acme. I figured some teams would run an extra 1/2 mile to get the Acme Stamp & Sign shot another 3 or 4 blocks up Mills. It turns out everyone got the Acme shot. Clearly, I spent too much time watching cartoons as a kid. I thought everyone new that Wile bought from both Ace and Acme. Oh well.
We also had our first solo racer, Tom Breed, something I discovered at the end of the race. At any rate it seemed to work out okay. Since our soloist didn't have a team name, I have dubbed him Solo Bandit. Well done, Tom.
Thanks to all of you for making this event a success.
