Some Cuba Race???

2007.07.07 Lucky 7's (Hess Dogs)
An alleycat in which each checkpoint involved throwing dice at different games to get points. Those points then turned in to poker chips for the top 4 people and they played it out to the end. There was no timing other than the race was over after two hours. If a rider didn't make it back to No Brakes by 10:17pm he/she lost. As with all Hess/WOF races, a tattoo stop was a bonus.

2nd - guerciotti (hub set)
3rd - Ben
4th - Julian
5th - toomanyaustins (won in a tie breaking sprint with jason, gregg, J.P. and ????)
