Gold Wing Road Riders Association - Texas Chapter G

Carnival Run 

This is another variation of the Poker Run. As you decide on checkpoints, choose places where it is safe for riders to conduct some basic on-bike games. Set up one game at each of the checkpoints. Each game has points according to its level of difficulty. At the end of the run, the rider with the highest total points wins. Some examples of some simple games you may want to use:

• Balloon Bombs - The co-rider is given a medium size water balloon. While the rider drives slowly under a horizontal bar, the co-rider must toss the balloon up over the bar and catch it without breaking the balloon. Give them three tries at it. 

• Curvy Cones - Give the co-rider six tennis balls. The rider is to slowly navigate a zigzag course through six large traffic cones while the co-rider attempts to place a ball on the top of each. Points for ach ball successfully placed.

• The Snake - Lay out a well marked twisty course to test the driving skills of the riders. Be sure to use the miniature cones or something that will not cause a rider problems if he hits one. If your course is extra challenging, it's a good idea to let the co-rider get off first for this one.
