Was told by the lad who helps maintain the bike park that it went missing some time ago; I will message the CO.
See post, before I even got to GZ a lad came over and said “I think I know what you’re looking for and it’s gone”!
Hmmmm, maybe this wasn't the best one to start caching again on. Never understood why you would hide a nano in a place like this.
Despite using previous logs and photos I searched unsuccessfully with L for 30 minutes while a mini muggle patiently waited for us to move on.

Thanks to a previous log, Mr Tardis was able to find this one nice and quickly. Lots of mini muggles nearby enjoying the excellent bike track. I must come back with Mini Tardis.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache JeffJulie.

Time to redress a prior DNF and it was nearly another one. Fortunately, Owl spotted the little blighter in the dirt, where it had fallen. She couldn't find anywhere that wanted to accept the spawn of satan (even metal will reject a nano eventually!), so left it back where she found it.

Area was deserted today so perfect for a search
Spotted the little red devil in the end
Cheers

Couldn’t find it, even after we finally directed mom to the right spot. I suspect someone moved it or took it without knowing it was a geocache.
Not a lot of helmeted muggles today. Had me searching but a paf confirmed I was having a mans look at it.
Thanks JeffJulie and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!

Wow, what a cool bike track. Parts of it look Serious, for Hardcore BMX riders.
Today there were no such people around, in fact only the wind and rain were present {Usually a very good Muggle deterent}, oh another thing present was the mud! I had to tread very very carefully here with all the slopes etc.
Found after a short search. Retreated back to the Geo-Mobile to SL where the rain made another appearance. SL at 13:23, a bit of a wait then the cache was returned.

Out for a late afternoon drive with hevwalker, chilly out but managed to locate 4 of these A - Z Adelaide Hills caches while in the area.
This one has finally been marked off the list, to many muggles on previous visits. Found after dark on a chilly evening.
What a quirky bike park, any wonder it's so popular.

Out & about with LiB taking my poor old geopet, Mandy, for a bit of a drive this evening...
Found some caches close to home...
We had been to this location on 3 previous occasions but always full of muggles so grabbed this under the cover of darkness

Wandering around the Adelaide Hills/Mount Lofty Ranges today, picking up caches along the way [^].
What an amazing place ! We'd love to see some people using this facility (found a few minutes on YT) .
Neat bike rack . TNLNSL.
Thanks for one more JeffJulie.

Took a shortish trip not all that far from home to locate the sneaky hide. Thanks for the cache JeffJulie!
Wow - loved this spot and I'm sure the kids can't wait to cruise around here when they are a bit older. Looked for a while and met with some other cachers. Neat hide. TNLN. Cheers.
Initially we started to search using the old coordinates but when the location was extremely unlikely, we checked and saw that the coordinates had been updated. As we went towards the new location, another person arrived with familiar mannerisms - another geocacher. We were pleased to meet chookster. Together we searched and the cache was located in a good hide. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks JeffJulie for the cache.
Had talked to gridge98 at an event during the week and he asked me if I wanted to go caching on Friday and as I had nothing else to do I said yes. It's always good to go caching rather than sitting at home doing other less interesting things. [^] We decided to meet in Stirling and cache around the hills as we both had plenty of caches that we hadn't found.
What an interesting spot. I normally don't like nano's but this was a good one and I'm lucky gridge was with me as he was able to reach it without any trouble.
Thanks for the cache JeffJulie.

An interesting little spot although the jumps look a little insane. Lucky I am tall enough to reach it.
A quick discussion the other night on a caching day out with @JJ52 for today, we decided to go up into the hills as we both had quite a few to find. A great day out in some areas I had never been, we cached around Uraidla, Oakbank and Nairne. A total of 44 finds and 2 did not finds for the day. Thanks to the Cache owners for their placements.

Have driven past gz a couple of times but there has always been a lot of muggle action around. Made the stop tonight during a quiet period and found the cache. TFTC
One of my New Year's Geocaching Resolutions was to try and fill in as many of the 83 days on my Caching Calendar where I haven't found a mystery cache. Today was another one of those days so I set out in search of a mystery cache. [^] But my target cache was still some distance off so I devised a long circuitous route that meant I could at least get a few more on the way there and then again on the way home. [:o)]
Luckily it was no longer school holidays and during the morning. No suicidal teenagers whizzing by on the strange ant mounds and I was able to walk straight to the cache which thankfully I spotted easily. Then came the fight to get the log out. Then came round two to get the log back in. [:(!]
Insert Freddo's rant about......................[here]. [:o)]
Did you ever consider the kittens? [B)]

My favourite cache in this series so far. Can imagibe this being muggle central at times. A clever hiding spot. Found with The X-Trailers. A fav pt today. TFTC
Found while after some relatively new traditionals south of the city and then up into the hills.

A quick find after following the previous log to go 15m east of coords. It was then an easy find. TFTC JeffJulie
Found this with CherryRose. 6pm. Joint FTF. Coords 15 metres out but definitely in the obvious spot. True to the hint. Need to be tall. TFTC TNLNSL
Found out with Beary Organised joint FTF. I don't like Nonos either. Tricky hide out of reach for many. TFTC TNLNSL
