City Chase-Chicago

City Chase-Chicago

Bahar and Nick are taking it to the next level. Urban style. It’s just like the TV show amazing race, but urbanized and it is called City Chase.From the website “Last year participants rappelled down a high profile tower, milked a cow, completed a boot camp, raced horses in Grant Park and did so much more.  City Chase is an incredible adventure that will show you the best parts of Chicago and the best parts of you and your partner.”
