Round the Bend Red Hill, Queensland, Australia

Tftc. Solved the puzzle and found the cache in surprisingly quick time for me.

Knew what to do here, but one proved troublesome, anyway I had enough numbers to brute it out. A poke here and there to uncover the cacheThanks If for Round the Bend#6230

Visiting South East Queensland for a week from Port Macquarie. Today we drove from the Gold Coast to Brisbane, with several stops along the way. Great weather once again paved the way for another decent caching day.Thoroughly enjoyed doing this puzzle. The theme of it has super close ties to my second biggest obsession (after geocaching of course). I recognised four of the funny shapes right off the bat and a fifth confirmed with a quick google to double check, visited one of them a few months ago . The other one however looked completely alien to me and required some targeted searching. Parked somewhat nearby and walked around to gz where the cache was soon uncovered.Thanks for the cache

Watawieh from Norfolk Island South Pacific.I had solved this quite a while ago as there is a puzzle cache in Singapore that I have previously found that uses the same system of funny circles After a day out caching and using Google maps to get home I realised that I would be driving past this cache. After finding parking for the I navigated the labyrinth of walkways, bridges, ramps and stairs to the GZ to make a successful find. TFTC Found & logged using Cachly for iPhone & iPad

Found It!A few of these were quite easy to work out, the others took a lot more effort. There's no shortage of people trying to sell T-shirts, cups, hats, posters, and any other bit of merchandise you can think of with these shapes printed on them. There's even an phone app designed to help you memorise the shapes. None of that really helped with the puzzle though. Once I had identified all of them and got a tick on the checker, I went to the final location tonight and found the cache after a short search!TFTC

We were in the city for Magic Round and after a few too many drinks we thought we’d attempt some caching. Who knew caching would be so fun while you’re semi drunk, if you haven’t done it, we’d recommend it.

I’ve had this solved for years and was an enjoyable puzzle to solve at the time, however, I wasn’t sure the coords we had were correct, but they did place them on a “bend” of sorts.

Once at GZ we were fairly confident we had the correct coords but struggled to find anything cache related, we weren’t sure if it was from the alcohol or if we were exhausted, maybe a bit if both? Who knows…

After a solid search we eventually had the cache in hand and were pleasantly surprised to see the original log still in the cache.

Thanks for bringing us here.

A solo afternoon of Wednesday Wanderings today, I decided to hit up a few caches that were kind of close to home, but older ones in areas I tend to avoid - that area being the city, or its close proximity. I found a suitable parking space, made the short walk down to the parking meter, paid, then began my days adventures.
Having found my first cache, I decided to leave the car where it was and walk to this one.
This is a cache I have had sitting in the solved pile now for so long I can hardly remember sitting down to it. But because it is in a city surrounds location, my “caching black hole”, I have constantly avoided coming to collect it.
I made the journey, surprised to be able to enjoy it despite the fact I was walking near so much traffic for much of the time.
At GZ I quickly spied the well covered cache and, with no one around (and the only vehicles in sight passing super quickly anyway) soon had the log signed on this long-overdue oldie.
Thanks for the cache If.

This is one of those times when all my teenage video game time paid off. I knew what i was looking at when i saw the puzzle and eventually worked out the coords. Fast forward to today and i was doing some work nearby for the Tour de Brisbane and having arrived early, i took a short stroll to gz and made the find. TFTC. Great puzzle.

I’ve been round this bend so many time before and had no idea there was a cache here. Looked at this puzzle last night as I knew I would be in the area today. It was fun finding the answers. One was particularly tricky but I got there in the end. Reminded me of when I used to play GPC on my IBM. With the right numbers I made a short stop to find the cache today. A nice quick find, and the shape of the container was also strangely satisfying. TFTC!

Tftc IF, BL had solved this puzzle a while ago. In the area so headed to collect it.
Nearly went " round the bend" trying to find a trailhead to park.
Quickly grabbed the cache from its hide signed and replaced just before muggles appeared.
Almost 12mths unloved and cache in great condition.
Nice to see the original log book too
Fave point for the theme

I started on this puzzle a couple of years ago, and had most of the puzzle pieces sorted, but my calculated solution had me in a spot that I could not work out how to get to. The puzzle was shelved.
Fast forward to lockdown / quarantine August 2021 and I had plenty of time to solve some puzzles.
I picked up this puzzle again and noted the coordinate checker. Didn’t remember that from last attempt, and indeed my solution was incorrect. Another attempt and bingo, I had a green light.
Now that I have been released, I was able to make my way to the calculated spot and the container did not take me long to discover. All is good and dry with the cache and the logbook. Good to read the original logs as well.
Scribed our team name in the book and the container was placed back where found.
Thanks very much for placing this cache If, all those years ago. Cheers

I was reminded today by my two geocaching companions that I had not logged this cache.

So here it is. In a twist or two, missing the round bend, I was able to solve the puzzle.
Honestly, I don't remember much about the cache - that's old age for you. But thanks for the hunting. Cheers.

Thank you, If, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Found after solving the puzzle some time ago.

TFTCache If

This puzzle definitely had us going around the bend. Since arriving in Brisbane a few years ago, we had looked at this a few times and put it on the back burner without much success.
During lockdown last year we decided to take a more serious approach, and spent some time finding our way through this puzzle.
Well, I can’t say we’ve ever ridden or driven any of these locations. All look stunning. It was just one that had us puzzled right through to the end and then with a little more homework we found what was needed. In the end, yep, it is definitely a clever puzzle. We did have a lot of fun searching for what was needed along the way. 
Finally, out today with a few geo-buddies and we were able to take a short walk and add our name to the log.
Thanks If!

We are pocking out a few solved puzzles today and collecting smileys. After a bit of trouble figuring out where to park... finally found a suitable spot and made a quick find. Tftc

After attending an Event in Roma Street Parklands i was lucky to join a small group who were also filling some gaps and this one is quite old so an added bonus. At first we parked in the wrong place and soon moved on to a better spot and soon had the elusive cache. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

Back in the car after the event, we went in circles trying to find a place to park and get this one as quickly as we could as we still have a long list of multis and oldies to find while we are in the city with great company and sufficient time.

Thanks for the cache and taking us here If. Great puzzle.

If there was a race to solve this puzzle I would of come last but with the help of a few zoom meetings during lockdown and great teamwork the puzzle got solved. Finally had the opportunity to look for the cache today with our small group after attending a nearby Event. Thanks CO, well done on the good puzzle.

TFTC If

So this morning I met up with Willis007 and we had planned to go to a tree planting CITO an hour away. We had a few minutes to kill so I suggested a few caches along the way, particularly a few I had solved but was yet to collect.

With no one around this early on a Saturday morning and with me as navigator, we made a few non-traditional turns and found ourselves here. While Willis parked the car I jumped out and went for a little walk to grab this one. It is great to see this older cache still in play.

I signed the log and then continued my way back to the car. I was very happy with this find, thanks for maintaining this one.

There was a similar puzzle to this one in Adelaide that I had previously solved, and so it didn't take me long in recognising those distinctive shapes, and what they meant. Once I had made the required matching, the numbers needed for the coordinates quickly fell out. As a consequence, I had made this solve several months ago upon my arrival to Brisbane.

This evening, whilst riding my bicycle home from work, I decided to make a stop here. This geocache was located on one of my few different commute routes, and needing a cache for today, I figured this would be a good and quick place to stop at. Upon arriving at GZ-ish, I had not considered any elevation differences, and so still needed a further detour to the exact GZ. However, that was my only trouble, as the coordinates and hint were both very good, facilitating a reasonably quick find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks If for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. At least I didn't visit here by car and needed to walk a long distance like those other shaped events!

Worked this one out last year, so decided it was time to make the find. Parked a bit further away than I needed to but a nice day for a walk.
Went to the correct spot and saw something but it looked like rubbish so looked in another area but then decided to return to the original spot. As it turned out, the thing I saw was the cache but a bit tricky to reach. Luckily no one about and got there in the end with a small scratch from the fence. All good with the cache. Tftc and fun puzzle.

I’m only new to Geocaching, and this was my first puzzle cache. Used google and my 10 yo son to decipher the code/ coordinates and then used the online coordinate checker, which confirmed as correct before we departed on the final stage. Arrived late afternoon, still quite light so easy enough to locate. Contents of GC appear to be in good condition, nothing damp considering recent rain. Placed back in same secure location. TFTC- very interesting location.

Rad

Hooray! This was so nice tftc

Pretty sneeky... TFTC!

I live close by but did not know that these paths existed. Thanks for the education. I was turned around in circles for a while & was amazed by how close to the bend that I actually came in search of the cache TFTC

Wasn't sure about my numbers but the coordinates took me to a very suitable location. I like that it fit with the theme! A nighttime search was fruitless, but daylight led to a quick find. TFTC

A short tour in Spring Hill on the last day.
First I visited the wrong place. This one was more interesting.
Danke an If für diesen Cache
***CADS11***

Solved recently. Had Uber duties that took me too the CBD this arvo from there it was a short drive here.
Good parking found and a short walk. The cache was in plain sight at the coordinates
Thank you for hiding this cache If

Since I 'had' to come to Brisbane, I brought my Geodog Scruffy and we zipped out and found a few caches.
This one really did send me 'Round The Bend' !!! - I forgot to put the updated co-ords in, so I was looking in a very wrong spot to start with - D'oh
Then when I realized, I headed to the right spot, but where to park ?? and how to get there ?? then I got in the wrong lane, and was heading in the wrong direction - Bloody Cities !! [:(!] - I so much prefer the country. (even tho I used to live & work in Brisi and was on the road every day)
So a quick look at the map and noticed a small road that could be near where we needed.
umm Local traffic only, local parking only .. ahh what the heck, "Scruff, me thinks we need to act like locals"
Well Scruff wasn't real keen on these walk ways with cars going underneath, but she soon ignored them and the cache was found and had our moniker.

All Good .. TFTC ..

Took a bit to figure out and solve the puzzle, but a nice easy find once it all works out. TFTC!

Out grabbing a few caches before work. Thought I had solved this ages ago but I couldn’t find the cache. Was talking to another cacher and it turns out I was at the wrong spot. (It looked like a great spot for a cache and fitting of the name). Anyway went back to the drawing board found my mistake. Finally got out here to turn this into a smile. Very quick find when you’re in the correct spot.

TFTC. Recognised a couple of the puzzle pictures straight off the bat, though I ended up struggling with one of them. Was able to crunch the sums without a specific answer to it, and then nabbed the cache during a sweep of Paddo/Milton hides. Cheers.

Having solved the mysterious squiggles some time ago, all that was left was to be riding around the area. So today while i was out enjoying the sunshine (although the occasional obscuring cloud wouldn't have gone astray) i just so happened to be totally lost. Opening up my app saw me way too close to this final not to drift on over for a quick pitstop.
And with accurate coords, that's all it was and off i zoomed into the city.
Thank you If for something a little bit different.

Great puzzle . Taken the Magic green ribbon and left a monster! Tftc

It was quite some time ago when the squiggles made sense and I had a solution. I've neglected caching in the surrounding area as it's just far enough away not to be accessible during a work lunch break and not close enough to home base. With this cache specifically in mind left early this Aust day morning while the heat was bearable.

Motoring past and collecting the bypass, wandered the general vicinity until the GPS caught up and the cache was in hand. Thanks for an interesting puzzle If.

On thursday nights i meet a couple of friends at chermside and i get there a little early for happy hour and take a puzzle to look at. The bar man who has now left always came to see what i was doing. Sometimes he was very helpful and other times just shrugged his shoulders. This puzzle was one where he knew straight away what to do. I was very happy and in between serving he came over and in no time we had most of it solved. I did the rest later on that night. Today after work i parked a little walk away and at gz was happy to find the cache quickly. What a great puzzle and very apt place for this cache. Will give it a fp. Thankyou if for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

Had a suspicion of where the cache may be, and walked the other way initially. Ended up trusting my instinct and went back, and there it was.

After an altitude issue like a previous cacher we found this cache in good condition. It's a birthday find for me so I'm happy TFTC

26/1/17, 1:59 pm Find #1696

Like the last finder, it never seemed convenient to stop here.

But today we are collecting puzzles. I leapt out of the car at a set of lights and wandered up to GZ for a quick find.

Now I just need to find the geofamily.

TFTC If

After a big weekend of walking last weekend, I decided to spend a few free hours this afternoon gathering up some less strenuous caches. This is probably one of my oldest solved but not found puzzles. Every time I go past GZ it never seems to be a convenient time to stop and have a look. Today I made the effort to find a park and walk to GZ, although I did manage to walk past the hiding spot before backtracking and quickly locating the cache. No point trying to look inconspicuous here, the cars are whizzing past so fast they will barely take notice. TFTC

#12857. After a lot of walking around Brisbane, it was good to take a seat and let a bus do some of the work. We worked out there was a bus stop not too far from GZ, and Troodles is always keen top stop for a solved puzzle, so we got off the bus and found the cache. TFTC.

Today is our last day in Queensland before we fly back to Christchurch so we took the train to Bowen Hills then took a meandering route towards Newmarket, an area we hadn't explored before. Thanks to the COS for all their hides.
I had solved the puzzle quite some time ago (and it wasn't easy as it's a subject I am not at all interested in) but we had never made it to this area before. I had left the GPSr on while we were on the bus heading back to the CBD and noticed that this cache was drawing closer, so we hopped off and walked back to GZ. A quick find for StreetWalker while I was still panting my why to GZ. Great to turn finally this into a smile, what a bonus! Now back to the bus stop to carry on our journey. TFTC.

Amazing puzzle, especially since some of the bends have 'changed a bit' over time. Tftc!

This was an area of knowledge outside of my normal interest, but a little looking and I soon found my way. With the puzzle solved and knowing I would be nearby today, I wandered across to try my luck. A quick find, and after signing the log I stopped to take a drink of water and watch other go round the bend.

Thanks to If for the puzzle and cache.

Find #1617 at 19:58.

I've already gone up the wall tonight, so why not go round the bend as well?

Found solo on the way home after an evening of indoor climbing with Palopinto.

I visited the wrong spot at first, but the theme of the cache soon had me in the right place. The cache was an easy find once I got there, watching the cars zooming around the bend.

Thanks for the cache, If. Another nicely themed puzzle solved a while back (after only a little bit of confusion around "D"...).

The puzzle played to keen interest but altitude had me round the twist and getting extra exercise at GZ. Thanks If.

One of 2 Unknown cache finds today on my walk after work. This one was a little tricky to find a few of the images.

Cache was found easily,TFTC

we found this a while ago but forgot to log, highly interesting cache, thanks for this!

Out today enjoying a full day of solo caching while the kids are otherwise occupied. Trying to rack up a few more numbers for an upcoming milestone, while also targeting caches to fill empty spots on our DT grid. Out the door at 0500 and powered on to find 38 caches, including 6 previously solved puzzles and 3 multis, picked up 3 new TB's and dropped off 2 old ones. Whew what an awesome adventure!! Enjoyed this puzzle, had it solved ages ago bit don't visit this way very often. Wandered over and watched the traffic doing what's indicated in the title before making a quick find. Second in the book since it was replaced post G20 TFTC

I had come from a cache needed to qualify for a challenge realised my bus was about to go past this cache so took the opportunity to claim it. It has been sitting in my solved puzzle list for a long time. It was fun to solve, I knew none of it, but my computer skills made it easy to solve. TFTC

Hooray !! The G20 is over !!
But you can still go round the bend

This cache has been disabled for the period of the "G20" meeting being held in Brisbane, due to security concerns by the security muggles.

[u][red]The cache container has been physically removed from GZ.[/red][/u]

So please do not go looking for it !!

With a couple of hours to kill and a tb needing to move on thought I'd try the inner west... tftc... left Sydney the Koala to continue on... hope he stays off the road...

Found with Sezzz

With the brains of this puzzle being ErinPamela's partner, they figured out the answers to the questions and I put the coordinates together. Today we finally got a chance to visit it. It was ErinPamela's partner's first cache hunt and I was hoping he would be the first to spot it. But alas I spotted it first but didn't take it out of it's hiding spot and let him have a look at it first. Hopefully this is enough to hook him, he hasn't registered yet, but hopefully he will soon and start logging his finds. TFTC!

Solved this puzzle a couple of weeks ago. Only needed help from muggleson with one of them. Had a pretty good idea where this one was hiding.
Was headed to the World Geocahching Day at Springfield when I got a flat tyre. It took roadside assistance a long time to arrive as the weather was wet an miserable. Always leads to a long wait.
After taking tyre to repair shop and finding that I needed to buy a new one I headed home to figure out what to do in this awful weather.
This solved puzzle kept jumping out at me. As it was World Geocaching Day and I only needed to find a puzzle cache to achieve the Seven Souvenirs of August, I thought it was an appropriate choice.
Headed out in the pouring rain with trusty raincoat at the ready.
Had to park some distance from the cache. Whilst walking in the pouring rain and getting wet despite the raincoat, I was wondering just how easy this cache would be to find. I just wanted to go home to my warm, dry house!
Arrived at GZ and found the cache easily, thank goodness. The cache is nice and dry, despite the weather. I am sure the muggles going "round the bend" were wondering what I was doing out in this awful weather.
Finding my first mystery cache and achieving the Seven Souvenirs of August on World Geocaching Day made the drenching I received worth while

!!!!!!! TFTC!!!!!! TFT puzzel!!!! as i like some of these types of event a few were very familiar. At GZ I hoped no one stuffed up on the bend as I was searching a few were going alittle quick . A nicely done puzzel ! no probs with cache !!!!! this was my 800th wooo hoooo!!!!

A find for the day for me. Having a strong knowledge of these pic as, I officiate at these types of places, I was able to solve this one quickly. A quick park and walk over to the GZ, I signed the log for the day. TFTC

I shall get down on 'Bended' knee and say you are truly 'Twisted'!

Although I have to say the subject matter far from interests me, everything else about this puzzle and hide was top shelf. My ignorance in the topic made me twist and turn to try and solve the bends. But after letting it sit and fester for a while, I finally got back to it yesterday, and after a few attempts I came up with a VERY plausible spot to visit. It is so funny that I pass within 3 meters of the cache on the way to work every day, and never knew it was here...but I guess that's the point!. With some time to kill today I made my way to a likely launching point, and after an interestin under and over I found myself at the spot in question. I wonder If.....yep thats it! Even the cache AND the Log fitted the theme...very impressive.

A quick sign and it is safely back in place.

You are an inspiration in your puzzle style. It is no longer a matter of 'IF' i will get to all your caches...but rather WHEN!

Out on a hunt today to clear a few city caches.
I had done the puzzle about 12 months ago and had some coordinates ready so it was just getting here to discover the cache and geopartner prefers me to drive into the city.
Had to find the right bend and the coordinates were spot on.
Thanks for the hunt and puzzle IF
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks IF All good with this cache
A favourite from me

I have been enjoying solving puzzles this week as there are no traditionals left near home it work. Saw this and thought I knew what was required. One rune tricked me and I had to try another technique which worked. On my bike here now to collect. I first looked on the wrong bend but soon realized my error. Tftc.

I had started to solve this one a long time ago. I knew exactly waht was needed as many of the squiggles had driven me round the bend with my other passtime. A well mispent youth on nintendo, playstation and PC

I managed to nav myself to a parking spot suitably near GZ. Less than 100m to walk and a nice quick find at GZ. Thanks for an easy puzzle this time IF.

09:19

Had another hunt for this one 2 years on since the first attempt, but again, no luck! Will re-check the co-ordinates, and hopefully find within in the next 2 years

TFTC, If.

I knew that I was going to Kelvin Grove today so I completed the pre-race qualification. Getting to the starting grid was the next challenge. Log signed. TFTC.

I dropped by the speedway today.
The cache has new bodywork and a new owner's manual

More people than ever are going around the bend here.

TFTC! Great spot, took a while to work out the gz but just made it all the more fun! Thanx

I've waited so long to come and collect this cache, that it has nearly driven me around the bend. A month or so after discovering geocaching, I learnt about puzzle caches. One rainy weekend, I solved about 70 mostly easier puzzles, including this one. I have gradually been whittling down this solved list into finds, but I still have 50 solved puzzles to go out and collect. So this one has been on the solved list for about a year now.

Today, I made a concerted effort to clear Spring Hill, Paddington and other nearby suburbs and this was definately on the list.

After finding a park close by I took a stroll and ended up at a noisy GZ. The crazy Brisbane drivers certainly roar around the bend.

A quick find. The container is cracked and very brittle, but the cache was surprisingly dry.

I have had this one solved for a long time, and have driven past this one too many times to count. I'm sure every time I drove past I kept thinking I should stop for this one, but up until now I hadn't.
So today we made a special trip just to grab this one. We found ourselves a park a little way away (could have been closer, i realised afterwards), and took a stroll to the solved coordinates. Where we initially ended up, nothing looked out of place, and then we noticed a better spot to try. At this spot, we noticed something that revealed a nicely hidden cache container.

We took a moment to sign the log and watch some of the muggles going about their daily routine.
Cache was rehidden, and we were on our way.

Thanks for the puzzle If, and the cache at the end.

I'm very happy to cross this one off the list, however I don't think ill forget about.

After a day out 'trying' to conquer MCBC with EngPhil and Palopinto, Alkzura and I decided to pick this one up so we had at least one smiley for today. The puzzle has been solved for quite some time so it was just a matter of swinging by to sign the log. Once we found the right spot we found the cache quickly. TFTC

Well, this is another classic IF puzzle. Well themed to the very end. But I found this one was outstanding in a number of other ways too.

The walk to GZ took me somewhere new, somewhere I have often wondered what was there. Which is always a great aspect to a good cache. Further, the hide was impressive. It is hard to believe it has lasted this long! People must pass by all the time, look directly at it and continue. Also, I found the coords on the Iphone to be spot on. And I mean Spot On. I cannot remember the last time that happened. The combination of disbelief about the hide and the accuracy made me doubt myself at first. Then, hah!

Oh, and of course there is the puzzle that was very clever. I am willing to overlook the subject matter (which does nothing for me) and give this a favourite from 5Meerkats.

TFTC If. I hope you are enjoying it wherever it is you now are!!

This was the first solved puzzle in my recent puzzle binge and I'm happy we got a chance to come get it today.

Lady Membsec solved this puzzle a number of months ago but we never seemed to get into the right spot to reach the cache. Today had to go to a meeting nearby and decided to walk to GZ after the meeting. GPS wanted to take me into danger but i looked around and quickly spotted a likely hide. Cache found (container is showing signs of wear and tear and probably needs replacing before the log gets wet). Cache logged and TB left.
Thanks for the puzzle and the cache. Another ? completed.

In my adventures I have driven past the posted co-ords for this a few times and thus wanted to get it solved. I'd looked at it a few times and although I had an idea, I couldn't get my hands on the proper resources to turn the corner on this puzzle. After much trying and being sent around the bend I received a small hint as to where to look and sure enough, this set me on the straight and narrow. It had driven me up the wall, but finally I had the right set of co-ords saved away for the next time I was in the area.

Today I was due to be in the area and checked out the course so I knew where I had to brake and corner. With the pitstop planned, I made my way there this morning. I was soon parked and made my way along on foot. Gee, the cache theme sure suits this area, as does the noise! Again I found myself rounding many bends before nearing the checkered flag. I quickly spotted something on the track and made my way over, sure enough, the cache. I noted the container is cracked but the contents are still in good condition. I added my name to the racelog, checked my time and headed off back to the racecar. A different sort of puzzle again, TFTC If, I much enjoyed this race

Came across this puzzle last night and recognized what those shapes probably were. A bit of help from google and a short time later I had some numbers. After checking the spot online I had a few doubts but read through some of the previous logs and thought I could be on the right track.

Jumped on a bus today at lunch time to check it out and was rewarded with a cache.

Thanks If, was fun.

Every Tuesday as I drive past this puzzle after my weekly radio shift I remind myself that I really must solve it, and last week I finally got around to it [^] A bit of Google researching was required but I soon got the idea and the numbers began to fall in to place so after today's shift I called by to make it my cache-for-today. Once I found the right path it was an easy walk. It's an extremely busy spot, but the cars kept flying by, which is appropriate , and ignored me, so it was an easy find. TFTC, If.

Solved the puzzle a while ago but only found the cache today, with the help of Donarto and Szevvy on a brief detour during a pub lunch today. Nice puzzle. TFTC.

Our second attempt at this one with the first being over 12 months ago when we had one digit out which took us to a nearby bend in the road but not the correct one. Today we were more successful. Container is a bit brittle and care needs to be taken when opening and closing it. We enjoyed the puzzle (once we had the correct information) and enjoyed the little walk from where we parked today. Thanks for the puzzle and cache.

I solved this one a few months ago but just never seemed to be near here to grab it. Or if I was close I forgot.

So today I was nearby and remembered it so I went for a quick walk.

As I approached GZ I realised there where as many bends and levels and tracks as you would expect with a cache with such a theme. [:(!] Where to begin [?]

I thought a systematic approach would be the only may, starting with a walk through looking at any obvious spots. I got to the end of the walk through and thought this is going to be a long search....when something a little odd caught my eye...yes the cache.

A little luck always comes in handy.

Unfortunately, the container is cracked but the log book is still dry.

Thanks for the puzzle.

Found @ 16:28 on 10/03/2012. This was my 42nd find of 47 total finds today. This one was asked about on facebook a few months ago, so I took a look and solved it during a few ad breaks in CSI. Today I was in teh area so picked it up. No probs. Thanks If.

out for a day of caching with net88 who had already solved this puzzle

we gladly provided the transport to remove another horrid question mark from the garmin

took little frog

Thanks to Net88 for solving this one. Found a suitable place to park and navigated the maze. TFTH

I worked this one out quite quickly since my family enjoys these shapes thank for the puzzle.

I really enjoyed this puzzle as I always like to see the circuit layouts when motor racing is on tv. I zigged and zagged along the paths to GZ to make an easy find. The container is cracked but everything is still dry. TFTC

at 13:33. Solved this one months ago but then forgot all about it until we noticed it in an area we intended to target today.

TFTC I. Unfortunately the case has cracked allowing in rain. The logbook is a little damp. A new case is called for.

TFTC - good cache. Picked up keyring and Olympic pin.

Well, this was an enjoyable cache for all sorts of reasons
Firstly, it was an If puzzle that I reckoned I could solve without having to headbutt as many walls as usual [B)]
Admittedly, I needed to take Dr Google for a spin as I fear that watching things go ROUND and ROUND and ROUND for a few hours would have me reaching for something a lot stronger than a fizzy cola [xx(]
After flicking through many dozen images, I was happy that I had identified them all: D was fine, but in my case F was the problem as it seems there is a track which is the mirror image and is a long, long way away and nowhere near as relaxing...
Another track I was sure of turned out to have a very long name... too long to be correct, it seems
Once I had some good-looking coords, it turned out to be rather tricky to get there without going ROUND and ROUND and ROUND (see above)
Luckily a footpath went exactly where I wanted it to... and soon the cache appeared, still in good nick despite having been undisturbed for about 6 months
TFTC If, I hope I can work out your other tricky puzzles sometime this century...

I found this cache a few years ago with someone else who had worked out the puzzle - to be honest I don't recall. I recently worked it out myself as I'm a MotoGP fan & the squiggles were no mystery to me. I'm leaving this note primarily to tell If that the cache container is cracked and while dry now, may not be forever as the plastic has become brittle. TFTC If

I didnt get the meaning of this one but found it anyways.

Left keyring, took nothing cause ants are not my favourite kind of treasure.

TFTC, 4A

relatively easy find once I worked out the puzzle, D was a little moe difficult then the others.

Cache container has seen better days. Tftc!

Couldn't figure out D but my guess was spot on. Easy find if you approach from the right side.

Solved the puzzle easily, but could not find the cache this morning.
The rain was slowly coming down, so we'll have to retry at a later date.
TFTH.

I nearly gave up on this one but spied it's hiding spot on my return after deciding I'd gone further round the bend than I needed to. TFTC

Thought these symbols looked familar so some googling had me on the mark. Calc'd GZ and headed off After my meetings in Brisbane. After getting the levels right it was fairly easy. Thanks for a great cache. Left Olympic Pin and Took GeoCoin

I wasn't so sure when I arrived at some co-ords with this one. But decided to go tackle it anyway. Thankfully my calcuations were right and I came up with the cache. The puzzle had me searching for a while - D was a fickle mistress but I managed to sort it out. TFTC If Left GC.

This was cache # 6 of 10 on my last day in Brisvegas. Being a game geek pays off some times, once I found a good parking spot the cache was soon in hand. My thanks to If for the cache.

Found this one on a big Geocaching Weekend!
I used to be a big fan of those "Hippodromes" and the type of Horses that ride on them
Very clever Cache, and only the first of your Mystery !
It could also be a Great Night Cache !
TFTC and Greetings from a Frenchy Geocacheur !

Pagan took the wheel for this puzzle and soon enough he had a set of coordinates. After a quick pit stop, the cache was quickly in hand. The container is cracked but contents are all fine. Thanks for the cache and puzzle If! [^]
