I don't think it was very fair to have a cache type which was available for one day in one city. Knocked a lot of people like me that want to have one of every type.

Just posted this vid in a separate dog thread ... but seems to fit here as well. This is our bike setup with our dogs. I guess technically it's a 4 wheel setup.
Just purchased a garmin 62ST with bicycle mounts. Haven't installed it on the bike yet. I'm hoping it's relatively solid.

Well for hiding in a cache in a cemetery or any were for that matter.
You can't go wrong useing the three commons.
Commonsense Common-curtsy and Common-decency
To bad there not as common as they should be.

I was talking to a land owner about setting up a cache on his property.
And he asked a very good question.
What is his liability if some one gets hurt looking for it wile on is his property?
And what of the CO?
Does any one here know?

Nice bike! Oh... but you're riding down the wrong side of the road!Last years caching holiday, 8500km (5000 mile) roughly, over 29 days. On this, our 2007 1600cc Kawasaki Vulcan Nomad-And my view of the world.

Those can be a lot of fun, and are a great way to create a "good evil" hide. (A needle-in-a-haystack cache is a classic "bad evil" hide.) But I think there would need to be something else going on ("specialized knowledge, skills, or equipment") before it really reaches 5-star difficulty.A nice evil traditional could have a good cache name in the title that will mislead folks into thinking they know what they are looking for and when they find it, wait... it's actually a decoy. The real cache would be within a metre of the decoy but very well camo'd and hidden.Be careful with the decoy though. I've seen decoy caches with laminated "keep looking" notes acquire "replacement logs". Those "replacement logs" then acquired many signatures before the cache owner figured out what was going on. I think the best decoy is one that is clearly not a container, or is a container that has been doctored so that it can no longer contain a "replacement log".
So rubber chickens and green painted duck decoy are fair game

We have a little group here in Northern NJ that goes out caching on bicycles on a fairly regular basis.
Little Known Fact: It is impossible to hold a negative thought while riding a bicycle.
Psychiatric community is trying to determine what that is--but it is true--and there is no known rational explanation. One theory is that the repetitive motion coupled with exposure to the natural surroundings triggers a physical brain shift that blocks negativity. But it is such a powerful response that bicycling is being prescribed for some people who suffer with depression.
This work with scooters and motorcycles as well

Oh I have few but you know the old story If I told you I would have to you know
In a place with little or no muggle traffic you could place a container close by that sticks out a bit .
They will go to it first thing shaking the heads on such a poor hide.
When opened they will find a note saying Hi I am a red herring good luck with the hunt now put me back.
With maybe a clue added to the note.

Since i lost 3 tendons attached to my right roto-cuff and now have a bad aortic valve that needs to come out, i am not riding my Honda 250 Big Ruckus. So tomorrow we are going to trailer it from our home in Bremerton, WA to near Jackson, Wy and give it to my grandson. He already has my fly fishing equipment and golf clubs. I even sent him my Etrex Vista a few weeks ago. Yes, it is my only grandson. Sure enjoyed geocaching with the Big Ruckus.About the only thing that works anymore is my mouth.
Oh yea the big Ruck is a sweet scoot I wish I could get my hands on one.
Hang in there

2 wheels, and a platform to mount the GPSr.
Hey what ever works for you its all about the ride.
-
Oh I hear you on back problems.
I also have a bum hip an knee that why I am riding scooter need the step thou .
I just use caching as another good reason to ride
-
As you can guess from my nick I ride a scooter.
Just wanting to see if any one else is on two wheels be it bicycle scooter or motorcycle.
Its all about the ride and not what you ride that counts.
My ride is a 09 Kymco Grand Vista 250cc The reason I like it for cache hunting is its a blast to ride and gets 70 MPG.
So what do you like about cache hunting on two wheels?
-
It's not an issue of permission, it's a question of responsibility. Needlessly trampling landscaping is irresponsible behavior whether or not the cache has express permission.
+1 If you cant slip in and slip out and leave little or no trace you shouldn't be out there.

Have you ever smelled a skunk and a dead animal when you were looking for the same cache?
No. But if a skunk and a dead animal were both looking for the same cache in the woods, would it make a sound?
The Skunk yes the dead animal no

Cant say that I have.
But my little friend here Cookie well not so little now she weighs in now at a good eight pound.
