  1. My mission is to travel to Dakar rally 2010

     

    The Dakar Rally (or simply "The Dakar"; formerly known as "The Paris-Dakar" or "Paris to Dakar Rally") is an annual rally raid type of off-road automobile race, organised by the Amaury Sport Organisation. Most events since the inception in 1978 were from Paris in France to Dakar in Senegal, but due to political instability in Africa, the 2009 Dakar Rally is run in South America, the first time the race takes place outside of Europe and Africa. The race is open to amateur and professional entries. Amateurs typically make up about eighty percent of the participants.

     

    Despite its name it is an off-road endurance race, called a rally-raid rather than a conventional rally — the terrain the competitors traverse is much tougher and the vehicles used are true off-road vehicles rather than the modified sedans used in rallies. Most of the competitive special sections are off-road, crossing dunes, mud, camel grass, rocks and erg among others. The distances of each stage covered vary from short distances up to 800–900 km (500–560 mi) per day.

  2. Accidents can happen. How do handicapped persons deal with life?

     

    My mission is to make it to the Paralympic games. The 2010 Winter Paralympics, officially known as the X Paralympic Winter Games, will be celebrated in Vancouver and Whistler, British Columbia between March 12 to March 21, 2010. The Opening Ceremony will take place in BC Place Stadium, Vancouver, British Columbia.

    If possible take a picture from the atletes in action during these games.

     

    In the mean time, while this coin is traveling from cache to cache spreading Bike Awareness, find out where handicapt people can sport in your town/surroundings and share it in your logs.

  3. There are twelve million bycicles in BEIJING.......

    and Beijing has some of the worst innercity travic savety in the world.

     

    My mission is to go to China.

    I want to go to this (virtual) cache (GCA209) and I want to have my picture taken with the bycicles that come by on the roads surrounding the Tianamen Square in Beijing. This square covers 40.5 hectares (100 acres) which makes it the largest open-urban square in the world.

     

    ( please don't stand ON these roads while taking the picture, you are bount to get knocked over)

  4. I wasn't going to post a mission, I didn't know exactly what I'd want the coin to do. BUT, after receiving an email today, I thought about it and here's my idea:

     

    To travel west spreading bike awareness to one of the favorite caches Tod and I found on our last trip to Vegas. In Red Rock Canyone, visit TurtleHead. Tod and I are only 1 of four visitors to this cache so far! Also, please go to Rock Art. Tod and I searched for this briefly on our last day in Vegas, just not enough time...we would have loved to find it, so please take Tod there! Another I would love to visit is Bridge Mountain. This is another peak Tod and I climbed before knowing about caching. We always thought we'd make it back... Last cache in Red Rock Canyon is Mt Wilson. This is another mountain we had climbed before we knew about caching! The memories of these climbs will always stay with me in my heart!!

     

    Lastly, I would like this coin to travel to this very special cache, Geocoin Highway: Rockin Roddy. From here' I would like to travel on wherever the spirit takes me, spreading bike awareness as I go!!

  5. My mission is to go to the island of St Maarten and get a picture with the manager of The Villas On Great Bay, Josh and his wife Zoey. A number of years ago we Got to spend 3 months there but it was before we were involved in Geocaching. The Villas On great Bay are located a short walk from the cruise ship terminal there very close to the end of the boardwalk. Financialy we will not be able to do this ourselves anytime soon, But someday we plan to visit again. There is also a Very cool Harley Davidson retailer there that rents bikes and had VERY cool shirts for sale.

  6. In 2004 vicbiker, a geocacher from Maine, rode his bike cross country from Washington to Maine. The mission of this coin is to go to Washington state and travel the northern tier to Maine. He has placed many caches but my favorite is Outah Piper, GC1DMTQ, so I would like the coin to come to that cache. I am surre vic will always remember his ride and I remember seeing the news coverage when he got back to Maine. It was exciting. I think this would be a nice tribute to vicbiker who had a dream and made it a reality.

    I will have to come back with more details after I get an email back from vic. He rode a bicycle not a motorcycle.

  7. How Many Bikes Does It Take To Get To Maine?

    This is a look twice for bikes coin so the mission of the coin is to travel and have my picture taken on bikes, There are motorcycles, pedal bikes, three wheelers, trikes, scooters, some even make their own bikes. So could you help me get to Maine and figure out how many bikes it takes to get me there?

    Before you drop me in a new cache, please take me for a bike ride and take my picture. Then when you log you dropped me off at a new cache you can post my picture. Thank you for helping me find out how many bikes it takes to get to Maine.

  8. My mission is to move from cache to cache spreading the message of care and patience on the road. Always take a 2nd look. I want to spread this message everywhere, "To Hell And Back." I would like to have my picture taken with road signs, indicating where I am, especially one for Hell, Michigan. Once I grow weary of my travels, I wish to travel to south-central Pennsylvania to meet up with SgtMikal.

  9. A mission for one of your coins.

    This coin is in memory of Tod Phillips who lost his life in a bike accident. Please help this coin get to a cache in Michigan, (Roddy can choose a cache) before August where Roddy will pick it up and on the 12 of August will take it on a memorial ride to celebrate Tod's life. Once it makes its mission it can be placed at Tod's memorial cache where it will be permanently placed.
