+LadyBee4T Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 #1 - How many miles did we drive on our roadtrip? 2547 miles Wear a helmet and spare your brain. Quote Link to comment
+seekerfamily Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 New way to win a coin (this will be one of my new AE personals which have yet to be shown ANYWHERE)...and I'll even throw in a coin to be released. OK, I'll even throw in a coin to travel to the second and third personas to correctly answe! EMAIL ME THE ANSWERS, DO NOT POST THEM! Answer to these questions please: 1) How many TOTAL miles have ALL traveling Todie's Wild Ride coins moved? This will be AS OF TODAY (July 4th 2009)! 2) How many total logs are there for the pocket coins? Again, as of TODAY! 3) How many pictures are there on all coins (traveling and pocket). 4) Name the coin which has traveled the shortest distance, the coin which has traveled the furthest distance, the coin that has visited the most states, countries etc and the coin which has visited the least....but is still active. When naming these coins, make sure to list the GC numbers! After this, I will award a few coins, but as I have figured out, they will NOT have anything to do with amount of travels etc, waaaaay to hard to make that work fairly! I will put all coin owner names in a hat and we'll do it the old fashioned way and draw for winners...is this OK with all??? I have not decided on the amount of winners, but I do have a few prize coins waiting to be awarded....more than a few really! This will NOT be easy, it will take a bit of time! PLEASE, don't try to BS me on this, I have already checked and will check again before all is said and done! Make sure to include a safety phrase lol! Now, back to the cointest in progress...and GOOD LUCK ALL!! Oh, btw, this would have been simple if you had all these on your watchlist....or NOT! Do we need to send answer to all questions together, are you counting mileage for pocket coins?(Question #1) OK, upon further thought, we'll just drop that question. Sorry everyone...but I did the whole thing Crazy! E-Mail sent Don't text and drive Quote Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 #8 - What did we visit/do/see during our roadtrip? There are 5 answers here, you only need to get one not all five. You went to Myrtle Beach SC Wear your helmet and your brain will thank you Night all I'm off to bed Quote Link to comment
+seekerfamily Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Hint about the number of miles we drove. Since I have spent about 10 hours looking at the miles on all these coins there are 2 cachers that have coins that have travelled a similar distance to how far we travelled. The coins belong to Sunmeadowlark and Surteb. Now you can look at a few coins too. Helmets save lives. Second hint - We are the SeekerFAMILY and the kids are not that interested in caching ( how could they possibly be related?) Disregard the first hint - one of Surteb's coins had the distance recalculated between yesterday when I put it on a spread sheet and today when this was posted Will find another hint soon Quote Link to comment

+fuzziebear3 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Well this is disturbing ... I was researching for the question about the state with so many riders without helmets, and came across this site: http://www.usff.com/hlstatutes/50statehls.html That says: Helmet Laws of the 50 states and how to beat them! Anyway, my guess for the question is Florida. WEAR YOUR HELMET!!! Quote Link to comment

+LadyBee4T Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 #5 - Safety question. Since we have started reading and posting on Todies Wild Ride we have become much more aware of motorcyclists on the roads. When our trip started we were very happy to see that most riders were wearing helmets on the roads. We only saw maybe 3 or 4 riders without helmets. That changed after a few days. We were in one state and saw about 100 riders during the day. Only a small number were wearing helmets - about 10%. What state were we in? Illinois WEAR YOUR HELMET no matter what the law is in your state Quote Link to comment

I had to go and change a logbook in a cache close to me, after an email from the owner but... the cache was gone!!! Inside there were about 3 TB's, 2 coins, a geokretel (something trackable from Poland... I think it is a different way to track these things from Geocaching)... it is a mess!

+GATOULIS Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Ride safely!! 2257.4 miles! Oh yes, it is sad! It was in a beautiful and ancient place, it was in the city, not far from the port so even the one day visitors could go and find it... I had selected it in some of my coins as the final destinations when they will (if ever) come back, Even SgtMikal's winning coin started from there!!! Of course you had to be very careful... lots of muggles there.... I hope it will be ok soon! Most probably I will go and put a new box there! I just have to wait the owner first!

+Rockin Roddy Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'm still here everyone, I know I'm not coming in as often as I should, but things are not good here. Dad needs another surgery on his leg (the one he broke), the pins gave way and the rod twisted and sank deper into his bone which is what has been causing him so much pain. The doctor told us this was the first time he's ever heard of such a thing....NATURALLY! Dad is really bummed, his spirits are bottoming out on us... Anyway, I receieved a few emails so far and the totals are pretty different. I am going to have to re-tally and see if maybe I made a mistake or what.... yeahhhhhh It's been a very trying last few days, I'll try to get back into the swing of things though.
