Want to know what your checkpoint challenges will be like? Some will be a physical task.
Others will take a little ingenuity. For example, one sponsored by Sierra Pacific Power might
ask your team to make electricity out of nothing but a paperclip and an AA battery. But
now that we've told you...it'll probably be something different.

An event volunteer will be available at every checkpoint to assist you with any problems.
- After completing each checkpoint, every team must have their passport stamped.
- Your race time doesn't stop until all team members cross the finish line.
- Anyone caught using any form of transportation other then the their own two feet and the city bus
will be disqualified, thus disqualifying their team.

- You can bring any sort of map, book, cell phone, laptop or calculator to help you solve the clues and find your next checkpoint.
- To travel to each checkpoint, you can't use cars, bikes, taxies, scooters, rollerblades,
skateboards, horses, donkeys, etc. Just the RTC public transit buses and your feet.
