Road Trip 2: The Return of Awesome Challenges
posted 2 years agoWe’re starting our Road Trip back to NC. Wouldn’t it be cool if we made up our own challenges and had some more fun along the way home?
Let’s crowdsource this Teams. Send your ideas to our tumblr site or just call us in the Chevy Equinox at 313-618-4069.
Here is the start of the list…
- Find and eat at a Chick-fil-a in Texas. Trust me this is harder than it looks.
- Take a photo with your Chevy with someone with huge sideburns.
- Best Lip-dub music video. (if you don’t know what lip-dub is, watch this classic)
- Funniest GeoSocial check-in (fake or otherwise).
- Tell your favorite moment or challenge on the trip.
- We’re thinking about more… add yours
Points are going to be scored by vote only. NO retweets. There will be one and only one winner of each challenge. The team with the most Awesomeness aka wins, uh, wins. Polls will be posted along with the items. This is just for fun and the winning team(s) are the ones that have the most fun. We are just trying to grow this road trip experience.
And hey, If you’re not in the mood for more Chevy SXSW Road Trip challenges, then that’s cool. We understand. Safe travels everyone.
Note: No jumping in photos. We’re talking to you Detroit.

Chevy leaves clues for Team NC, in the form of Microsoft Tags - which are essentially QR Codes with colors. We scanned it to reveal the next clue to crack for our next trip destination to Houston Texas tomorrow. What does it mean?
Team NC in New Orleans - clues discovered.
Clues from our team members’ Gowalla check-in at Harrah’s leads to a txt msg revealing our NOLA hotel destination for tonight at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside. A scanned Microsoft Tag code waiting for us at (actual) hotel check-in reveals yet another clue for our next destination: H-TOWN. We have to decipher this rhyme before we reach Houston Texas.
A feeble quick attempt to chart our route on a map. We have used Planes, Trains and Automobiles to begin our journey to Austin Texas and win the Chevy SXSW Road Trip Challenge. We’ll post more location information as we go.
