"As real Hobos ride the rails, we instead ride the trails."

 

 

The Hobo Run 2003 was a great success!!

Click here for a full event report and final scores!

Thanks to the 'Hobos for a day' and all the corporate sponsors!!

 

 

    Come be a Hobo for a day, and ride the Kingston Peak Loop with us. As a Hobo, you'll need to muster up needed supplies along the trail to survive. Each item collected at six different checkpoints along the trail will be assigned a point value.  The Hobo with the highest point total will be rewarded with the 5th Annual "Top Hobo" Trophy. Trophies will also be awarded for 2nd and 3rd runner-ups.  In addition to collecting vital supplies, a playing card for a high poker hand, and other clues (like: Where's Eugene?) will be handed out for extra credit points.  Oh yea, Did I mention we'd be jeepin?  During the lunch stop, points will be tallied, awards presented, and door prizes (yep, random prize for each 'Hobo'-see below!) will be handed out to lucky ticket holders.  Dash plaques and a souvenir 5th Annual Hobo Run bandana (to hold your survival goodies), will be presented to each participant at registration, along with an instruction sheet.  You will need a 4x4, a CB (Citizen's Band Radio-hand held ok, but reception may be weak), tow hooks, fire extinguisher, lunch, and a big smile!
