+GaryM53 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 At the end of the The Travel Express Geocoin Race there was a grand total of 326,659 Miles recorded. Some of the coins had a hard time getting out of the gate and others are still active today three years later. I have (3) Mardi Gras 2015 Abilene Geocoins to give away to the top three people that guess the closest to the total miles as of tonight! If you want to enter your guess e-mail me. The winners will be posted Monday March 9th, 2015. Quote Link to comment

+Bartians Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Such an easy question. Let me consult my trusty crystal ball. No. I think my lovely palm reader can give me the answer you're looking for. Wait. Let me throw darts at a couple of answers. Or, I could just pull a number out of my.... head. 500,000! Quote Link to comment

Team Red-one Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 What a great surprise! Thanks GaryM53 for this cointest. I really enjoyed this! Quote Link to comment
+New Market Mallers Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Thanks so much GaryM53 for doing this! I was so excited when I woke up this morning and saw that I had won a coin. So generous of you to do this! Email sent to you with my address...thanks again! Quote Link to comment
+Bartians Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) Cool! Thanks for the cointest. It's a great prelude to getting people excited about your upcoming race. I don't have any Mardi Gras coins, so this one will be a treasured coin. Edited March 10, 2015 by Bartians Quote Link to comment
+GaryM53 Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Your welcome Your coin was sent yesterday before I went on a road trip to Kansas. Quote Link to comment
+seekerfamily Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Sorry we missed the cointest. Checked on our travel express train - it made it 3303 miles before it disappeared in 2011. The two the we helped move made it farther at 4000+ miles and 22000+ miles but none have moved in over 6 months and all are now listed as unknown location. Enjoyed helping the original travel express coins. Seekerfamily Quote Link to comment
