Street Scramble preparation

Wear whatever feels appropriate for the weather and the exertion level you plan. Of course, comfortable footwear is essential if you are going out on foot.

Everyone should bring the following:

  • A watch, so you'll know when you need to return
  • Pens/pencils for marking the answer sheet and for planning your route
  • Helmet -- mandatory for cyclists

You may wish to bring the following:

  • A magnifier, to make it easier to read the fine details of the map
  • A compass. This can be handy but is not necessary. You can rent one for $1 if you leave keys as a deposit.
  • Water
  • Snacks
  • Sunscreen
  • Additional maps of the area (on the Street Scramble map, most street names are not shown).
  • Bike lock -- for the very few checkpoints that require going indoors briefly
  • Your receipt, if you pre-registered – occasionally we make mistakes and a receipt can help clear up confusion.
  • A fun team name and/or team costume
