    Ftf's

    in Northeast

    Posted

    If you had gone for this one three days after it was published, you would have gotten the FTF: GCRGJA

     

    Actually, I probably would have been the first to DNF that one. :ph34r:

     

    Ah it isn't that bad!

    I don't usually rush out to get FTFs nowadays. However, if I arrive at a cache site at the end of the day and I'm still FTF, then it means that you guys dropped the ball. :huh:

    Seriously. I remember the good ol' days in Central Jersey when I could show up three days after a cache was posted and get the FTF. Now-a-days, this timing usually puts me on the 5th or 6th page of the log book. :ph34r:

    Actually, if I see a cache is getting hammered, I'll purposely hold off for a while before finding it.

    Commercialism And Ethics Question

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    As long as it isn't overtly commercial (meaning the cache details aren't dedicated to promoting the restaurant) it should be ok. In that case it's just a convenient prize for the find. I'd be happy to find a Starbucks gift card in a cache.

     

    (edit: ok, maybe not an empty Starbucks gift card)

     

    Starbucks gift card makes a nice FTF prize! B)

    I'm from South Toms River, NJ. Looking for people to cache with. I dont have a 4x4, and its more fun with other people. Any groups out there I can join? Let me know. :D

     

    Well there's SJG... :laughing: I, myself am just outside of Trenton... any other motorcycle cachers out there?

    Scooter Driving Geocachers?

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted · Edited by entropysedge

    I tried to go geocaching on my motorcycle last year. I have a Suzuki Katana but there was no way to mount the gps to the bike. Regular handlebar mounts won't work because it has the low clip on hanldbars that arn't round and I tried a suction cup mount but it didn't want to stay on. :blink:

     

    I have a RAM mount for my Quest on my SV650S (which has clipons); by shifting the right grip just slightly, I was able to fit the mounting bracket onto the clipon.

     

    To keep this more on topic, I had thought about buying a Bergman, looks cool as well as getting good fuel milage but I just felt too ackward riding it... friend of mine has the Kymco scooter and loves it... at one point I'll probably try it out just to say I did.

     

    Here are my two rides; SV650S and XT225 (just got this one 'cause the SVS don't like dirt roads):

    Central Jersey here, just outside of Trenton, overlooking chaos.

     

    In regards to the splotch, I've been puttting caches out in the area! Got a couple of other spots I got my eyes on, just need the time to set the caches out :P

    Buying A Digital Camera

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    The best camera is of no value if you don't have it with you. The larger cameras are great and I have them. But carrying them around in the woods is a drag so they'd stay at home. I wear a small 4M pixel 3x optical zoom point and shoot Canon in a belt holster and always have it with me. Don't even know its there until I need it. You can check out the images at my home page.

     

    Here's a good web site to review all the mfr's and their models. Check out the forums too. Cameras.

    That's true! The larger cameras can be a little cumbersome to carry around (especially on a motorbike). I have a Fuji A210 point and shoot that I carry in my tankbag. Have gotten some great shots with it, shooting at the highest megapixel setting(you can always shrink the image in photoshop).
