The GRAIL HUNT is a scavenger hunt open to all who have raced at least one race in the Cyclocross Crusade series in the same calendar year.
IN THE SPIRIT OF GRAIL HUNTS OF YESTERYEAR, THIS SEASON WE WILL TASK THE HUNTERS WITH THE GOAL OF FINDING FOUR TALISMANS AND DECIPHERING THE SECRET CODE THAT INDICATES THE LOCATION OF THE LONG LOST HOLY GRAIL.
THE TALISMANS LOOK A LOT LIKE QR CODES (BECAUSE THEY ARE) AND IN SCANNING ONE, YOU WILL FIND A WEBSITE TO TAKE YOU TO THE NEXT STEP… FIND FOUR AND THE SECRET CODE WILL BE REVEALED.
THE TALISMANS WERE LEFT BY AN ANCIENT CIVILIZATION, THE BICICLISTI. THEY ARE LOCATED ALONG AN EXPEDITION ROUTE CALLED THE STRADA DI SCALE. TRAVELERS ONCE EMBARKED ON THIS ROUTE TO THE SHRINE OF THE HOLY GRAIL. THIS ROUTE IS LONG AND ARDUOUS. ADVENTURE AND DANGER LURKS AROUND EVERY TURN. IF YOU COMPLETE THE ROUTE, AND FIND FOUR TALISMANS, YOUR REWARD IS ENLIGHTENMENT AND THE SECRET CODE. IF YOU CRACK THE CODE YOU MAY FIND THE LONG LOST HOLY GRAIL.
HOW TO HUNT:
