Joey Babay held his Twin Cities road rally scavenger hunt again this year. The previous race was in 2001 and was won by....
Me and Jenny Batten, Andrew Datwyler and Troy Luna.

And this year's winner was...Me and Jenny Batten, Andrew Datwyler (not pictured) and Keith Horvath
The event is a complicated scavenger hunt of clues and driving. Andrew is an awesome driver. The clues were really really difficult. And there were a total of 80+ clues that tooks us from the Richfield HUB to The Bedlam Theatre in downtown Minneapolis.
Joey thought it would take around two hours. Far from it. We took 4 1/2 hours and were the second fastest team. But speed only counted for 30 out of the 100 points. The rest of the points were obtained by answering questions or getting trinkets along the route. We accumulated 58 points.
Bob Davis' team seemed to have disappeared but came in 1 1/2 later. Because the time didn't count for all that much, it would be possible for his team to pass us in points. However, Bob's team got 53 1/2 points so we retained the championship.
The whole thing was lots of fun but really really difficult.
