+Mad H@ter Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) My Tricky and Friends TB(s) has beaten this at 119058.5 miles, however some might say that this spooky TB has been cheating Edited June 2, 2015 by Mad H@ter Quote Link to comment
+Malpas Wanderer Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Mixed feeling on this one as to whether it was good for one cacher to retain it since 2008. I certainly can't beat that milage with my top being 36056 mi and that is probably quite false too as I called it in when I found the coin had been stolen and replaced with a laminated replica and also likely on a list being logged at events it's never gone to. My second highest travelled went missing too. Which leaves my possible best contender @ 27036 mi Good luck with your TB and hope it eventually reaches it's goal. Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Our trackable with greatest mileage is Edelweiss, a free-ranging geocoin, with 80,000 miles on its clock. Much of that mileage has been added over the last 10 months by the geocacher Ride the Tiger who's been travel world-wide. A good survival rate for a geocoin released in November 2009.

+Original A1 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 My Magnetic North TB has "only" been some 97k miles with me, according to its webpage: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=2441871 In fact, it's been a long way further than that, including the extra distance from Moscow to Wrangel Island (near Alaska) and back, but there were no caches in which to dip it at the time. I also don't log it into every cache I've visited - far from it - and if I had done, I suspect its mileage would exceed the figures mentioned above.... and genuinely, too. Quote Link to comment
+milvus-milvus Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I came back just to see if there is anyone still about from the old School... Greetings Roy! I can't beat the TB miles - but just thought I'd say "Hi" as one of the old-schoolers. Now caching on the Isle of Mull... Quote Link to comment

Great to hear that you're still kicking around Roy, and i have a letter for you that was using some sort of cache postal system. We picked this up a few years ago but havn't seen you since; seems that this is a tad less efficient system tha Royal Mail . Quote Link to comment
