+ChaosMikis Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 i am in search of interesting caches/locations in Illinois to go. I want to use this as a way to get out on the motorcycle and explore more of this state. Quote Link to comment
+Vooruit! Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 You could try searching for caches with a lot of favorite points. The cache map of Project GC (https://project-gc.com/Tools/LiveMap) is very useful for that. Quote Link to comment

Chicago has lots of caches of all types but I'm not sure a motorcycle would be of much use to you in the downtown/magnificent mile/loop area, much less the suburbs. Traffic is always an issue. Did you want to look at areas outside of Chicago where you can ride on a state highway for miles? Do you want to head over to the Indiana Dunes and see some houses from the Chicago World's Fair? Rural, urban, suburban? I've mainly cached Chicago and Joliet (track event I attended with my oldest) so my knowledge is limited. I DO know that there's a new-ish virtual in Casey that would let you ride in the farmlands. I still need to make the trip over from Indiana to visit. https://coord.info/GC7B8KF Quote Link to comment
