BMX Bandits Boronia, Victoria, Australia
By Mark&Kelly on 21-Nov-15. Waypoint GC65881

Time to move on, this area is now free.

Day1976 and i looked for ages in the only obvious spots, I think it might be gone. And after speaking with a cacher who has previously found it, we do think it is no longer there, as we looked in that spot a couple of times with no success.

Sources tell us it may be missing?.......will be out to check it soon.

Nice, easy find. There was a muggle BMX rider riding around the course at GZ, but I managed to find, sign and return without being seen. All in good condition. TFTC

In the area getting the geomobile checked over and this cache needed locating as I had time to spare.
The only activity was a aspirant young BMX bike rider but he soon disappeared. That left the track clear for searching and soon had the prize in hand. SL TNLN.
Thanks Mark&Kelly for the hunt and chase. The cache is in good order.

Creative spot. TFTC

Thanks for a quick find on this 42° day. Easy access from Wadhurst Drive, saved walking too far in the heat. Thanks for the hint.

After a lazy day took a walk along the Trail with my daughters. Lovely sunset tonight thank you for bringing me here. cache found in good condition.

Today was to be a day of caching around the Knox area. Why is that you ask, well I was to have lunch with my girlfriend, so what else is there for me to do other than to grab a couple of caches before and after lunch. Anyways thanks for the cache and the find

Cache replaced and ready to find.

Unfortunately it looks like this one jumped on someone’s bike and took off. We will replace it very soon as this has been a popular cache.

10:43 am I struck out here today. Because of the two recent dnfs, I only quickly stuck a stick in the obvious spots. Interesting track that still looks like it's being used.

Couldn’t find this one, we spent a good 15 - 20 mins looking for it, this cache might have been taken

Looked everywhere and found an obvious hiding spot. No luck, I think it may have been muggled.

We came all the way from Minnesota USA to Spend time with our family we decided to go geocaching and found this one. Cool spot. TFTC!

Find #3564. Found @ 22:57

Wanting to add to my cache count, and get closer to maybe score a world turtle, I went out for a walk along the Blind Creek.

My first port of call, and boy was it slippery under foot. I managed to go straight to the cache location and had hand to cache within moments.

Took nothing, left trackable, signed log and visited some other trackables.
Thanks for the cache Mark&Kelly

Perfect weather for me on my day off from work to catch up geocaching today. Found it. Thanks Mark&Kelly

A quick find for our first creatures souvenir. No one around so an easy grab but nearly slipped over in the mud Cache contents are nice and dry but the container is broken and probably needs replacing soon.

Thanks Mark&Kelly

Nice find was a little out and showing so covered it up a bit more. Just Finished a game of basketball and smashed the other team and now my nice basketball shoes have mud on them. TFTC

13:49, June 11, 2018, # 717, out with n0w0rries today doing a few in this area. Nice quick find. TFTC.

BoatieTim picked me up and we joined jascat and TeamGBunny for a few finds this afternoon.
A fun little spot that I have been close too before. Some young blokes had their remote controlled fourbies out in the hills and mud puddles. Looks like a whole lot of fun!
The nicely hidden cache was soon found and a whole lot bigger than what we were expecting.
I would have thought this was a regular.
Thanks M&K, it's been a while since I've found one of your caches.

Out for a bike ride. Great cache. TFTC

11 Jun 2018, Found @1:49 pm, Find # 1604

After completing the nearby puzzle with TeamGBunny and meeting up with n0w0rries we headed off to get this one. A nice easy find. Just as we were about to sign the log a cyclist came by who happened to be another cacher.

Thanks to Mark&Kelly for placing this cache

Found with jascat and a few others

A nice quick find here. I'd love to see some pics of Mark on a BMX, in his youth and present day.
Thanks Mark&Kelly

A pretty easy find with some help from my caching buddy . It has been a Miserable week weather wise and its great that today is full of sunshine . thanks Mark&Kelly

I was early for dodgeball tonight, so decided to go for some more local caches. As I was walking into this cool little park, I nearly collided with some “old infrastructure”. However, I didn’t stack it, and it gave me a great idea of where the cache would be. My suspicion was correct, and the cache was soon in hand, albeit with a little wriggling. Thanks for a great little cache!

Find number 6566 at 1:22:08 pm
I need 5 caches today to continue my journey to find 10 caches for every calendar day and then I go and book in my colonoscopy on the same day, sh&^%$#t... I know, I know, too much information
Thankfully my lovely MuggleWifeDoes agreed to drive me around this afternoon so that I could continue my trek
Nice quick find today, the track was desolate, I suspect this may not be the case on weekends though.
**Thanks for placing this cache Mark&Kelly**

Thanks. An easy find in the dark.

I didnt know about this BMX track, I will def bring my geokids back here for a ride! No-one about today, a quick and easy find. The cache was popping its head out a bit, I left it with a bit more camo on my way out. TFTC!

I originally found this cache with my Mum heymissjo, but now that I have my own account, I am logging. Thanks for the cache.

For the past few years I have cached as part of "team heymissjo", but now I am old enough to have my own account so logging the find. Thanks for the cache.

Found with heymissjo and kids

#102 find 12.45pm
Wow what an awesome spot, no idea was here... out biking and caching with kids so super excited about both location and cache! Thanks!

Never knew this was here. Hidden out the back ..looks like it has been visited recently .. found a pen. .TFTC

Awesome.place nice quick dind

I was a student at the nearby high school, obviously not a keen walker back then as I never ventured this far down the bike track. Great spot for kids to ride their bikes or practice with remote control cars.

TFTC Mark&Kelly. A nice easy find. The second find today, a lovely sunny day. Jimmytherat

Great find. Kids can't wait to get the bikes down here. Thanks!

Found it

Found it

This was s quick and easy find. As cache was exposed. .
With Zedaycee and Angelique Anja.

A quick find today (the cache had been left broken and exposed). I reattached the locking mechanism and returned the writing stick to the cache, then recovered it... Ok... It looks like a geopile... But... At least it's covered!

Found this cache rather easily as it was very exposed and one of the clips was broken. Pen was found next to the cache so we put it back together and well as possible. TFTC

Nice and easy.

Found it!
A little muddy and slippery but it was fun.
Found it with Dancingjaz who doesn't have premium.

Left a card from our suburb and took the little princess Sophia(I think)

Great little spot not too far from home. Kids wanna bring their bikes here for sure

Dad had a few spare minutes before picking up teen from work, so dropped into this location.

Easy find and the cache is in great shape. TFTC Mark and Kelly

I wish I had my bike with me...I wish I was fitter! Lucky for me there was no one here when I arrived so it was quick find for me. Cache has spot on co-ords and is in good condition. Thanks Mark&Kelly.

Little bloke found it loved the old school track-left a angry bird toy

Awesome! Didn't know there was a BMX track here. TFTC

Must tell the Bmx hubby about this track! Bit tyred now. 14th for the day. Must be a record for Bellatijo and I Cheers TFTC

Cool place thanks

Quick find. Used to walk my dog when I lived here. TFTC.

Didn't know there was a bmx track there

Found ! Great for the kids .. swapped toys in and out .. right on gps

I went out hunting with Ruschie for the afternoon. We found this cache. tftc.

Found with Crustyvarmint
TFTC

I've been stuck in front of my computer for three days straight trying to get an assignment done. You have no idea how exhausting it is just sitting and reading and typing. I had to get out of the house before my brain explodes. This was a nice easy find which was just as well, I may have just cracked if I got myself out of the house and not found anything. Well, back to work for me. I have essays to write. Woo.

Found it!

We have been wanting to do this cache for a while and we had Wogs on the Move with us to. It was very hot so we were poking things with sticks until WOTM mum said Found it.
This was special to us because it not only was my WOTM mums second find (their kids had found the others) but it was our 300th find. We have have been caching for years, my brother in law is Black Legend, but at a pretty slow place.
Thanks Mark & Kelly.

Over this side of town for wedding dress fittings, so while the girls do their thing we do the guy thing... caching. Parked near the factorys and walked around to the cache. A good hiding spot for this good sized container. TFTC

Out on a 3 generation bike ride comprising Rhodie67, Team KSBTJ and TynaNid, the bike track seemed a good start for the day. Quick find for Team KSBTJ. Nice big container, nice and dry. We left a few trinkets for the next children who come along to make their find. THTC.

Found it on our bike ride with Team Ksbtj and TerraNid, TFTC

Love the cache position, Geodad had massive flashbacks of riding this track 35 years ago! Tftc Mark&Kelly

Found at 3:09 PM GAFF1.
We took c-pprass's 98 yo mum to the Knox Tavern to play the pokies, so I had a bit of time to find a few nearby caches.
If we were still living in the area, this cache would have been snapped up by us within 5 minutes of it being published [^]
there also seems to be more than BMX bikes that do this circuit judging by the large tyre marks that can be seen going around.
Thanks Mark&Kelly.

Thanks for the find on a very hot day

#356 - 5.10pm
When I pulled up in the car, there was a muggle and daughter preparing their remote control car by the side of the road.
So, I knew I didn't have much time when got out of the car with Dynamo and Emeylo.
The Mini-Welders had a momentary look at GZ before the urge to run around the track became too great, lol. Well, we were soon joined by two muggles, 2 RC cars and their 3 kids. My Minis were drawn to the action which left me free to make the find.

In the short time it took for me to sign in, 3 BMX bandits also arrived. Returning the cache was going to be tricky. The moment they became focused on clearing furniture from one of the jumps was perfect time to do the deed.

Thanks Mark&Kelly. The Minis had a lot of fun here. For a place that has been 'let go', it still sees plenty of action!

Found mid week after heading out this way with my wife for a bite to eat and a cache or two while we were out (I always seem to pick a new place to eat each week depending on caches in the area) and this was a quick park and grab, after a short stroll. The area was very quiet this afternoon and we had no troubles locating the cache. Thanks Mark&Kelly for the hide.

Went for a search after Jump Deck so tired.

Hmm which place to look at first. A pretty quick find once we got to Gz. Enjoying being out caching with Robinyang. Tftc 13 October 2016 7:46 pm

Out for an evening of caching with 4evatinks. We decided to walk along the blind creek trail and this was the first along the way. Our GPSr were jumping around and it took a few minutes for us to find GZ. Once there though, a quick scan of the area and we spotted something alittle "out of place". Delighted to sign our names on this one and replaced as found. TFTC Mark&Kelly.
BTW, trust you guys had an AMAZING cruise. So jealous!!

I remember this place. Had a massive stack!

I am surprised this is still there so visible...

Great quick find, thankyou

Wish I had the kids with me, as they would have loved this area. Made a quick find once at GZ, as we pasted through on our way home from Rosebud.
Thanks Mark&Kelly for placing & maintaining the cache for us to find.
#3561

The weather looked great this morning so I hitched the bike onto the car and headed off to the Wantirna area to grab a few caches along the Blind Creek Trail and its surrounds.

I quickly found the cache and then decided that I would do a lap of the course before continuing on my way. TNLN. TFTC.

I won't bore you with the stories about how, waaaaay back in April when my sister was over from NZ, her husband bumped my husbands car into the back of my car and I've been suffering from a bad case of interior-light-coming-on-when-I-drive-around-corners-itis ever since. It's a rather embarrassing ailment, especially at night time, when said problem becomes much more noticeable! I've had the car fixed but this issue doesn't seem to be going away so here I am, once again, back at the panel beater trying a new type of treatment to see if it will fix the problem. Didn't I say that I WASN'T going to bore you with the details........sorry about that!
Anyway, this is the nearest cache to the panel beater and I'm sick of looking at their cheerful colour scheme inside the waiting area so I decided I'd go for a walk. I mean, honestly, no one wants to be cheerful at a panel beater!! "Just fix the car and get me outta here".
Another reason for taking a walk instead of sitting in the warm office was because it looks as though we are going to have some weather from the depths of hell thrown our way, so I figured I'd enjoy the sunshine. Holy Moly....the wind was strong!!! If there's one good thing about that wind though, it was that I didn't have to put much effort into walking. The wind gusts almost picked me up and carried me to the cache.
The cache was found in good condition in an area that looks like it'd be a lot of fun......if you're wearing clothes that you don't mind throwing straight in the bin afterwards. The large dips in the track are currently filled with large puddles of muddy water! Signed my name in the log book, admired the track once more (maybe I'll bring the kids in summer) and headed back for my car, which is hopefully fixed for good now. TFTC TNLN

Clearing another cache near home - gotta get those smilies
Shame it started pouring so we had to cut our day short. TFTC

My 11 year old wanted to go for a bike ride so this looked like a great place to visit, shame it started to rain as we had the baby in the pram and had to walk home again. 11 y old speant about an hour riding around through the puddles regardless of the weather calling 'watch this one Mum' as he went through each puddle trying to get stuck. Bub was nice and cosy all snug in his pram oblivious to the rain. I was soaked. At least we found tje cache and a nice big mushroom too. Tftc

Great find bit muddy today so be careful when caching in the winter tfc

Great hide in an old haunt for us too! Thx

Nice find. Was out visiting a friend this way and seen this cache near by. Thought will go for a walk and find it. Nice place i remember the days of BMX tracks was fun times in my young days.
TFTC was interesting reading some logs in the log book.

TFTC

TFTC!

Having walked along this trail previously I hadn't realised that the old BMX track was here. I always love locations like this where what it looks like when nature is starting to reclaim an area. The cache was located in a very apt hiding spot, I like it!

Thanks to Mark&Kelly.

The old macs cycles track, My first memory of this track was it being featured on the early bird show I would watch the bmx riders on TV wanting to give it a go but it wasnt until after it closed I got a chance. Of course just about every local kid spent some time on these tracks. I have come past here a few times and it still seems to attract some youth. Today I came past without my bike but the kids were both impressed by the track and pleaded for us to return with our push bikes. I was closing in on GZ when my phone rang and while I was distracted on the phone my girls found the cache and signed it for me. Once the call was complete I helped them return it to its hiding space. Walking back to the car the kids could help running up some of the jumps while i yelled at them to avoid the mud as they were in their school uniforms. Great Spot Mark&Kelly I had spoken to eighthknox about hiding a cache here but you guys beat me to i;t he even had a subtle dig at me in his found log but at least there's a cache here to show this spot off; that's the important thing TFTC

Having attended my daughters fund raiser a little bit of geocaching to defrag was in order. It was good timing to do this one as there was not a bike in sight. Excellent hide in this very innovative place for young kids. Well done. Cache is in good condition. Thanks for the cache Mark&Kelly

Found it! My 2nd find..

Had to find this one, near my house and i know mark and kelly so thought i had to atleast get one of their caches.

This is the furthest West we went on our bike ride on Blind Creek Trail with my daughter's friend, Sam and his dad, showing them geocaching. I was unsure of this one as it seemed to be in a too exposed area but soon spotted it 5m away- surprising Sam's Dad. The kid's got distracted by the track while I logged the cache. Thank Mark& Kelly

*24/04/2016, Found @ 10:06 PM, Find # 5301.*

I headed over to this area as I needed to replace the log in one of my own caches, so while I was here why not find a few caches that had popped up since I was last here.
I headed in to this one and found a nice little track, then over to GZ where the cache was found quickly as it was a bit exposed, lucky to still be there I thought.
The log was signed and on replacing I tucked it in a bit more so that it was has exposed.
Took TB.

**Thanks to Mark&Kelly for placing this cache.**

Great little track. Never seen it used but obviously busy at weekends.

Found this one fairly easily, despite the good hide. No bandits around today. TB in. TFTC

Quick find with diana8 on an afternoon of caching in the area. Tftc.

Cache is in good working order. I left a TB. Thanks Mark&Kelly.

TB in!

This was so weird, the GPS was pointing in the direction of bmx trail the whole time, instead of directly to gz! Anyway I found it, tftc!

Nice quick find & brought back memories of riding the ol' bmx around. TFTC

I was stoked to head out to the old trails today so I could shred the rad set-up. Back in the day my can-can's were amazing, my crooked grinds were pretty tweaked and my tailwhips were rad. Now, I can't even bunny-hop without doing a scorpion skid. My dog is the strong rider of the family, and she cut it up with maximum flow. She feebled the ledge and hucked it over the jump box. Then she ate some horse poo. Shady. Thanks heaps peeps for the burly session. Sick.
