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.

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.

My goal is to travel to Washington, DC to have my photo taken at the Albert Einstein Monument. I hope my travelling companion/s will take a moment to sit on his lap, contemplating the importance of bike safety and awareness. While on my way there, I would like to have my photo taken with other objects that might increase my safety IQ.

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.

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.

I want to climb every hill or mountain you come across and maybe you can make a picture just as it looks like i have climb the mount everest. :D:D:(

 

 

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.

Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.

The winds will blow their own freshness into you...

while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

My mission is to visit two large Canadian pennies: the big penny at the Centre Gift Shop in Niagra Falls, Ontario and the big penny in Salmo, British Columbia. As part of my journey, I would like to hear your 2 cents on driving and biking safety. Feel free to take photos of me with other larger-than-average coins.

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!!

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.

My mission is to travel to the Nurburgring in germany

 

The Nürburgring, known as simply "The Ring" by enthusiasts, is a motorsport race track in Nürburg, Germany. It was built in the 1920s around the village and medieval castle of Nürburg in the Eifel, which is about 70 kilometres (43 mi) south of Cologne, and 120 kilometres (75 mi) northwest of Frankfurt. Nicknamed The Green Hell by Jackie Stewart, it is widely considered the toughest, most dangerous and most demanding purpose-built race track in the world.

 

Originally, the track featured four track configurations: the 28.265 kilometres (17.563 miles) long Gesamtstrecke ("Whole Course"), which in turn consisted of the 22.810 km (14.173 mi) Nordschleife ("Northern Loop"), and the 7.747 km (4.814 mi) Südschleife ("Southern Loop"). There also was a 2.281 km (1.417 mi) warm-up loop called Zielschleife ("Finish Loop") or better known as Betonschleife, around the pit area.[1] Between 1982 and 1983 the start-finish area was demolished to create a new GP-Strecke, and this is currently used for all major and international racing events. However, the Nordschleife is still in use.

 

The Nürburgring also plans to build a massive Air Thrust Coaster by S&S Power in 2009. It will be called Ring°Racer and will reach speeds of nearly 135 mph (217 km/h), making it the fastest roller coaster in the world, claiming the record from Kingda Ka.

I would like to be at the Daytona races, the Sturgis event, even the La Tour de France and all places in between where bikers congregate--both motorcycles and bicycles-- to spread the word about biker safety. All bikers need to be aware of their surroundings and of other vehicles on the road. All bikers need to wear protective clothing and approved helmets. Help us spread the word!!

 

This coin is being released in loving memory of Todie Phillips of Manitou Beach, Michigan--Tod of Team Rod and Tod w/KAboom...the Cachestalkers. Tod died in a tragic motorcycle accident on August 12, 2008 when a truck turned in front of him and he tried to avoid it. Sadly Tod was wearing a novelty helmet that wasn't DOT approved when he died.

EVERYONE WANTS TO LIVE A FULL LIFE AND GROW OLD!

 

My mission is to be photographed with The World's Oldest Tree. A tree that has seen everything and still stands (in spite of it)

Earth's oldest living inhabitant "Methuselah" has reached the age of 4,768 years.

You will find it in California at waypoint: N 37° 22.724 W 118° 09.941

 

In the mean time, while travelling from cache to cache I want to spread the message of Bike Awareness and tell everybody to practice save driving.

WHEN GIVEN SPACE, RIDING IS FREEDOM!!

 

My mission is to do the Grand Tour in Europe. I want to see touristic spots in at least 10 European countries. You may choose the touristic spots and place me into caches nearby.

Tell me in your logs what you would like me to see and if possible, please add a picture.

 

While I am travelling I want to spread the message of Bike Awareness. Especially the message: Riders face more hazards then drivers, PLEASE give us more room!!!

Here's one.

 

My mission is to travel to GCH8Q7, Head of the Dragon, which is the start of a road that is very popular with motorcyclist because it is an 11 mile stretch of road with 318 curves. There are a good number of accidents on this road because of motorcyclist pushing their limits and non-motorcyclist not noticing motorcyclist and this coin would be a good reminder for them to be careful and for the non-motorcyclist on this road to keep an eye out for others. It would be great for this coin to make it to this cache by September 11, in time for the Women's Sportbike Rally which is held at Fontana Village a few miles from the Dragon. This way not only could the coin remind motorcyclist to be safe, non-motorcyclist to watch out for motorcycles and it could hang out with a large group of women who ride motorcycles.

My mission is to travel to Palestine, Texas to have my photo taken with the Angel on the Wind. This statue is the basis for the Silver Wings virtual cache (GCHCPM).

 

Do you have a guardian angel? As part of my journey, I would like to have my photo taken with all kinds of angels. And remember, you could become someone’s guardian angel by following this simple rule: Look Twice for Bikes!

There is some things I want to do but doubt I would actually do it so I am going to live vicariously though this coin. Here is what I want to do.

1. Ride in a big rig. I like my pick up so think the big rigs would be fun.

2. Travel to Alaska when it is always sunny.

3. Go to the Mount Washington Observatory

4. I don't like crowds so go to a geocaching event. Mega event would be nice. I might do a small one.

5. Go to Arizona.

6. A very special part of my mission is when you get back into your vehicle, drive safe, look twice and please pay attention.

7. I wish I was more adventurous so have lots of adventure, lots of fun, and show me all the things I am missing.

 

Please don't keep me. I want to travel, see the world and meet lots of people. I want to live vicariously through this coin so let the adventures begin.

I hesitated but I am adding a personal mission. If you don't want it, please throw it out.

 

My mission is to visit the two caches of Reintje de Vos adopted by Loper.

The caches are located in the Netherlands and are both mathematical multicaches combined with long walks through Dutch forests and heather fields.

The caches are:

Het Hoogtepunt: GCG44G

and

Dleeblegeips: GCPH48

Reintje de Vos (Reintje the fox) was a Dutch geocacher and webdeveloper for geocaching.nl.

My mission is to go to Greece to go to this cache: Meteora: GCGJ59.

The Metéora (translated:"suspended rocks", "suspended in the air" or "in the heavens above") is one of the largest and most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries in Kalambaka, Greece. The monasteries are built on natural sandstone rock pillars, at the northwestern edge of the Plain of Thessaly near the Peneios river and Pindus Mountains, in central Greece. . Although more than 20 monasteries were built, beginning in the 14th century, only six remain today.

It looks like this:

I would like to travel around the world spreading bike awareness. As you retrieve this coin you log it and when you drop it off in a new cache you log it. While you have me think about bike awareness, sharing the road, look twice for bikes and before you log you dropped me in a new cache, please post on my page what you did or will do to make the roads a safer place for us all.

This is part of Todie's Wild Ride, geocachers sending coins out for bike awareness. Tod Phillips a fellow geocacher was killed on his motorcycle. Have you lost a friend or loved one in an accident, have you discovered a way not to be distracted while you are driving. Share your ideas and thoughts with us by logging me.

My mission is to travel to the peanut capital of the world – Dothan, Alabama. I would like to have my photo taken at the golden peanut cache, Visitors Welcome (GCT2Y5), and with the other peanut statues around town. Feel free to take photos of me with any other lively legumes I encounter along the way.

 

Don’t be a nut! These peanuts are dressed for success, and you should always remember to wear the right safety equipment when biking – especially a good helmet!

My mission is to make it to the Grand Canyon and be photographed in front of some of the amazing scenic views and also visit some caches in the area. The Grand Canyon is more than a great chasm carved over millennia through the rocks of the Colorado Plateau. It is more than an awe-inspiring view. It is more than a pleasuring ground for those that explore the roads, hike the trails, or float the currents of the turbulent Colorado River.

 

This canyon is a gift that transcends what we experience. Its beauty and size humbles us. Its timelessness provokes a comparison to our short existence. In its vast spaces we may find solace from our hectic lives.
