+Write and Mane Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 WOW this is a First! Write and Mane have just had a request for our Merthyr Marathon Series 1 - 8 Wheelchair Friendly Version The MM Series has been going for a few years and this is the only request to date. Quote Link to comment
+Sensei TSKC Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Sorry for being stupid but what was the request for? Quote Link to comment
+Write and Mane Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 Way back in 2003 we set up a series of 8 caches in the Merthyr Tydfil area which require a fair bit of legwork. In order for the caches to be completed by people who are unable to tackle the challenge we produced a Wheelchair friendly version - we have just had out FIRST and only request for a copy of this version. Hopefully someone will be giving this modified version a trial in the not too distance future. Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 (edited) Sounds like an excellent project! I hope when it's tested at last everything goes well. Well done on thinking of making a physically easier version of the trail available, and the ironic use of the phrase 'legwork'. Edited to make the smilies more friendly.

+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Hmmmmm, can't just not reply to this one just now, but seeing as I am now not only a w/c cacher but have my left arm in plaster just now (above elbow following surgery), I can't write as fully as I would like. dadgum careless I know! Will get back with my thoughts when I have more patience for the ohe handed typing stuff! Quote Link to comment
+The Flying Boots Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 It's us that requested the wheelchair friendly version of the MM1-8 Series. Mr F.B. is a carer for a quadraplegic lad who after hearing about our escapades Geocaching was keen to have a go. It's hard trying to find places in which he can take his wheelchair and he'd need help retrieving the caches so we're just feeling our way with this and looking at the possibilities. We,ve found that he can get close to a couple near to home "Martha's Harbour GCQT3C" and "Severnsiders Walk GCQKQ1" although we've yet to take him there. The main difficulies for him is the fact that he is totally dependant on others. Quote Link to comment
