It’s finally almost Friday. Are you fully prepared to ride through the streets of Nagoya at night? Don’t give me that "Wait, was there something going on?" routine—this is no time for comedy!
After all, this Friday night, December 2nd, is the Circles 10th Anniversary Eve Alleycat!!
For those who might be wondering, "What exactly is an Alleycat?", I’ll explain by looking back at past events. Even if you already know, you should definitely read on, as there might be some hints for tomorrow hidden in here!
An Alleycat is an orienteering race done by bicycle.
At the Nagoya Alleycat, participants are given a map marked with checkpoints. You study the map and decide your own route and the order in which to visit them. Knowing your city well—like knowing "that street has fewer traffic lights" or "this checkpoint is up a hill"—will determine your fate.
Of course, it doesn't end just by arriving at a checkpoint. Each location has a puzzle you have to solve once you get there.
Looking at the city from a different perspective is fresh and even more fun than you might imagine! If you're even a little interested, or if you're doubting whether it's really that fun,
Entry Fee: ¥500
Start: 8:30 PM
After-party: Bateria Parlwr
This time, we’ve scattered questions throughout Nagoya related to our 10th anniversary. You can try to hit every checkpoint, or just visit a few close ones while cruising toward the after-party venue. But don't forget, there are special prizes waiting for the winners.
You can't skip the warm-up before a once-in-a-lifetime festival. Ride your usual bike, your race bike, or that bike you haven't taken out lately. And by all means, bring your friends along and let's have some fun!!
