Hoblik Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Bicycle geocoin for all those who travel from geocache to geocache using the human power and two wheels. With a very special version for a very special recumbent bicycle. Initiator of this coin is great fan of recumbent bicycles. As those bikes are rarther rarely seen, this version of the coin will also be rare. Both version share the front, but have their own molds for back side. Dimension of the geocin are 50 x 32 mm, thickness 5 mm. Trackable at geocaching.com with its own icon. Both version are available in three metal finishes. Coins are available through our geocoin site NB: Prices on the site include 20 % tax, for those who live outside EU the tax will be deducted during check-out Some images: Quote Link to comment

+badger10 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Very nice coin! Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 As I do most of my caching on a bike and I'm getting a new bike today, I placed an order. Very nice coin. I'm looking forward to see it in real. Quote Link to comment
+boiler-todd Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Hi - I don't know if that is a real code but, just for a safety measure you might want to hide your trackable code in the pictures. Don't want some one to activate it without the coin. Quote Link to comment
ATMouse Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) Oh dang...you have a 'bent on there. Not my Volae, but close enough. Looks like it's sold out. Edited to add - You only made 20 of each 'bent version?!?! Yikes. No wonder they are sold out. Edited December 23, 2011 by ATMouse Quote Link to comment

We will be making additional 10 of each recumbent versions, so the total will be 20. We really wanted this to be rare. Quote Link to comment

+badger10 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Received some cash for Christmas and decided to grab one of these while they are still avalable! Quote Link to comment
+badger10 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Got my coin in the mail today. Love it! It is thicker than I thought it would be. Quote Link to comment
+DsrtMtnRox Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 My 2 coins came in the mail day before yesterday. I love them. One is for me and the other one is going in my first cache hide. It is going to be a tribute to my favorite CO cache and I am leaving the coin especially for him. He is a mountain biker that has placed caches all over our area on some great trails I like to hike. I can't wait! I hope he will be surprised! Thanks for the great coins! Quote Link to comment
+fuzziebear3 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I ride a recumbent bike, and like to cache by bike when there are caches on the trails. I don't ride on the roads much though -- too dangerous on a low and slow bike. Quote Link to comment
+kulhal Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Hi everyone, I am very happy to see that you like the "Certified Geocaching Bike" geocoins. With Hoblik's great help they were designed as my personal coins because - as for many of you - geocaching on a bicycle is the best kind of geocaching for me. Hoblik and I agreed yesterday that we will produce some more coins, i.e. we will complete the limited editions quantities, and produce a few more of the unlimited ones. So stay tuned, in about two months all versions will be available again. Special hi goes to all of you, recumbent bike riders. I am attaching a picture of my bike so that you know where the inspiration for the geocoin came from . Edited January 22, 2012 by kulhal Quote Link to comment

+kulhal Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 ATMouse: Great bike! In last months I am tempted to invest into a road recumbent with an Above-Seat-Steering, so perhaps one day my bike will be similar to yours. I will send you an email once the recumbent coins are available again. Quote Link to comment
Hoblik Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 It is spring - time to get the bicycle back on the road. Bicycle geocoins are back in stock, including few recumbent bike coins - available through our gecoin site Quote Link to comment
