New Geocaching Challenge!!!!


GPS Dual Sport

Recommended Posts

Check out the Kawasaki GPS Dualsport Series 2003, the newest type of Motorcycle

Adventure in North America.

 

Coordinated by Rally Connex, this seven event series will take you, your GPS and your Dual Sport Motorcycle into the beautiful "Near North" of the province of Ontario and Quebec Canada, A land of a million lakes, rivers and back roads.

 

The series will take you from Majestic Niagara Falls to the "Land That Time Forgot" you will visit the scenic Madawaska Highlands and picturesque Prince Edward County. You will also enjoy the spectacular Laurentian Mountains and Gatineau Hills.

 

At each event we will provide you with GPS training (if needed)

and then supply you with GPS coordinates that will take you on a challenging and scenic route, stopping for lunch at a nice restaurant along the way. we will even provide you with Geo Caching challenges if you want to sate your competitive spirit.

 

This is how we are using Geo Caching:

 

The type of Geo-caches that will be used will be unique to our events and will add a bit of excitement and competition to the rides.

 

Here's how it works. Before the event, we will go out and strategically locate area’s that may have some very specific information for you to use in solving the GPS challenge. This information may be in the form of dates on a plaque, street names/other signage, a puzzle or even playing cards attached to a pole.

 

You will have to return with what you have found to be able to solve the challenge. Some of the caches will require you to go off course further than others!

 

We will provide you with ONLY the coordinates for the cache - no routes, no tracks--you are on your own to navigate to it! Once you get to the cache - you've got to find your way back to the ride route as well!

 

The determining factor after successfully completing the challenge portion will be your total recorded mileage, we will have recorded the exact mileage for the event and for finding the caches without getting lost. Who ever does the best in the challenge and comes closest to the exact mileage will be deemed the winner. There will be various prizes and an overall trophy for successful participants.
