An Alleycat race is an informal bicycle race, often organized by bike messengers. To end the Sur Place exhibition in style, Mediamatic is organizing the final ikCam Alleycat competition.

Pick up your ikTag at the Mediamatic Bank around 1.30 pm. Take a good look at the checkpoint addresses below. Decide which route you want to take and wait for the start signal. You can log in by holding your ikTag in front of the monitor positioned in the window of each checkpoint. There are various checkpoints around Amsterdam. After you've logged in to all of them, get over to Mediamatic and cross the finish line. Check the report on your profile page to see how fast you were.
