My friend Adam (formerly Diving DJ – now changed his name to UKCacheMag – but that’s another story) have started a little competition to see who can get to the next milestone first. And I was feeling a little unimpressed when he got a 20 cache series set out on his doorstep. In fact I get a little unimpressed when I look at the map as all over the country cache series are springing up with sometimes 8 caches per mile… We don’t have any like that around here.
So when I saw this series set up 25 caches on a walk of about 5 miles I thought I would have to go and do it… then I noticed that a) it was all on paths you could cycle on, and b) all on the flat ! So I thought it was time to get my bike out again and take up cyclecaching again Continue reading →

A new circuit of caches had been put out round the village of Bramhope which is 3 miles from where I live, so on the Saturday morning I thought I ought to go and start the series, but rather than doing an entire circular walk I thought I’d pick them off as a series of Cache and Dash-es – though in the end it might be a shorter walk to just do it properly !

This time I decided that going to the emergency dentist for more antibiotics had better be done sooner rather than later, so I took some time from work to go… Continue reading →

Another few caches had been put out along the banks of a reservoir just a mile or so away from my house, so on a sunny Sunday afternoon I thought I would go grab them as well as some other caches that had appeared in the local area

First of all I had a bad start, I couldn’t find GC3D94J Lindley Wood 1 Continue reading →

A new series of caches had been put out near Harrogate, so on a Saturday afternoon I thought I would have a go at it. The cache setter said it had taken them 2 hours and 40 minutes to go round and set the caches, so I figured that if I set off at at about 2:45 I’d be nearly round before it got dark at 5:30 ish Continue reading →
