HITCHBALL 4000
| Hitchball 4000 hitchhiking competition returns on June 14-16
================================ Hitchball 4000 is a weekend-long adventure during which teams of two people hitchhike through selected checkpoints to a secret destination, where they will spend the night all together. A GPS tracking system allows fellow competitors, friends, worried relatives and random drivers to follow the race and the progress of their favorite team in real time. Winners will have their name engraved on the Hitchball 4000 Cup and the team with the best vibes will receive the Spirit of Hitchball award. The races aims to promote hitchhiking as a fun, easy and ecological means of transportation as well as to demonstrate the safety of the Northern European societies. Find yourself a team mate and take a leap of faith to the next level! Register to the most exciting roadtrip of your summer before May 31. “Hitchhiking as an experience is one of a kind. Our eyes were opened, the faith in humankind was restored and our goal was reached by being totally at the mercy of strangers, and the resulting feeling is, as said by so many others after the experience, awesome.” More information: www.hitchball4000.fi/en/ FB event: www.facebook.com/events/402189290612918/ |
