Obley Art Series 1 Cumnock, New South Wales, Australia
By vra on 30-Oct-10. Waypoint GC2HFK6

An amazing and fun collection of art, very much enjoyed it.Last night was a later one, arriving into Nyngan about 10pm or so. A nice mild night and birds chirping quietly through the evening. Another nice day but cooler now, still warm and pleasant, unlike yesterday's hot almost 10C hotter. Stopping at the towns as we pass for ALs and caches is a good way to see the sights and recall past times. We have an event to be at this evening in Orange, so we were well placed. Of course caching time is a different time, so another full day despite the short distance.

Another long trip around AU over the top end with lots of detours. Now heading back east across the Nullarbor with a stop at Maralinga, Ceduna, Lincoln National Park, Coober Pedy, Oodnadatta, Broken Hill & Orange.TFTC. An excellent fun collection of art. Awesome.

Quick find today with the kids on our central NSW school holiday adventure. We had an absolute ball looking at these and took copious amounts of pics. Fav added for this one. Such a great concept - near to come back and continue the trail to Dubbo now! Cheers

Replaced bag. Enjoying the views

Stopping for a few caching breaks on the way from Sydney to Broken Hill.TFTC

Cairns to Sydney Road Trip
Day Seven: Bourke to Orange
Weather: certainly cooler in Orange!

Greetings from a transiting South Australian.

Google Maps has directed me off the A32 at Narromine only to rejoin it at Molong, presumably to completely avoid Dubbo. I was a bit worried about the road petering out into a goat track, but it was all good. But best of all, I got to see the “Animals on Bicycles” sculpture trail. There are some awesome pieces, it was really entertaining. This is one of the caches I found on the detour.

Thanks for placing it VRA.

A quick find in the rain.TFTC

Really enjoying the sculptures. TFTC

Quick find whole being curiously monitored by an elephant. Everyday something new!

Wow, loved this sculpture trail.

Headed out today to find a cache for the day, and took in a little trip to grab this one. It’s great it see what people design and come up with, although one of the animals seems to be taking a bit of a kip at the moment. Cache was found in a good spot.

Gratias vra

Very good

How good are these. Thanks

Great piece of art we probably would have driven past. As for the cache itself... Wouldn't have driven past that.

All in order

Thanks!

Thanks for maintaining the cache

Out adventuring in the rain with Irol22. Tftc

Nice and easy find with Roomar_S. Love the art! Have been enjoying it along the drive. Going to come back along here when it’s dry sometime soon! TFTC.

Travelling from Orange to Cobar today with pdbunce and just had to stop when I saw Orange and Fizzy. OMG there’s a cache here I said to my travelling companions. Very quickly had CIH. Loved it.

Road trip with Geodog Peppa, heading to Dubbo

Not quite the most obvious spot.

Love these creatures

Tftc

No luck here today

TFTC.

We are travelling along the Animals on Bikes trail, grabbing photographs as we go. We stopped here and I thought that I recognized these animal to be near a cache. On inspection of the map I realised that I was right, so set off to GZ. It certainly isn't the most obvious spot and in fact it was Pa who came across from the car and walked straight to it. Some people just have the talent. Thanks for the cache and I left a PT after signing duties were completed. Cache has been returned to its resting place.

Looked in all the likely places. Suspect it may have been muggled.

Found the obvious place but unfortunately no cache.

Found the obvious hide. But no luck.

#3732 Passing through with GM and Duffco from Canberra. Nice art across the road. TFTC.

Second and last day of a caching long weekend (thanks to Canberra day) with TheSkype and muggle bro. Amazing art series on these outback roads. Tftc

9479 Located by baby&Mrs gopher in company with keith58 at 1440 Staying in Parkes for the Elvis festival and it is now time to find a container or 2.

A big day of caching between Orange and Wellington and back. Great weather, able to squeeze in a parkrun as well and caches were all found straight forward.

Easy find TFTC

An easy find while on our way to Orange.
Thanks.

Over shot this one and needed the exercise, so walked back and made the find. TFTC

Found with Justjessie on a "History of", "Road less traveled" and all the other caches in between four day blitz. Had a great time and saw some awesome countryside. TFTC.

Thanks VRA.

Nice quick find while out and about! Thanks for placing! : )

I love driving through here and looking at all the strange animals on bikes and bikes on animals. Today I stopped to pick up a find.

To think, Banjo Patterson started this fascinating art gallery.

On our way to Canberra! Quick find! TFTC

Co ords seemed a bit off but after a bit of scrambling the geokids found it. Huzzah! Left some swaps. Tftc

Enjoying the Easter weekend at Manildra with my caravanning friends. Today we went for a drive to Molong, Cumnock, and Yeoval to see the Animals on Bikes sculptures.

Found easily. Signed log. Thanks.

Squassum Luv Bug visited.

This one has to be a favourite for sure! Geocaching is all about showing you things you wouldn't otherwise have seen if not for the placement of the geocache, and this one kicks that goal for me. Love the sculptures, had no idea they were here - we stumbled across them during our spicing up of our drive out west by taking a different route than the usual main road. Loved loved loved this road and all the sculptures. Will be telling everyone about it!!!

TFTC! Taking the opportunity to cache my way to Dubbo while out here for work

Love the art!

TFTC. A quick park and grab between inspections.

Nice easy hide. Art work across the road are amazing. TFTC

Found on the way from Narromine to Canowindra via Molong, heading to Coolamon

Tftc GZ about 9 meters off

Travelling in and around Dubbo to see how many we can find in a couple of days.
Love the artworks over the road.

We may sign small log sheets as CG.

Thanks for the cache vra.

Cool hide

Found with geohubby. TSLS. Nice hide. TFTC

GC'S in good condition. Thanks for the GC. TSLS.

Tftc!! Enjoyed the art across the road!

Returning to Orange from Narrabri and we (drobbonz and kiwisteve2) decided to take the road less travelled to see all the Bike Art. Glad that there was a cache that had us stop. Wish there were more. Very cool road to travel. We also saw a fox and stopped and rescued a turtle that was crossing the road. Here from Portland Oregon (home of the original stash) visiting family for the holidays. Tftc

A pleasant diversion while driving from Canberra to Dubbo.
Thank you vra for this cache and for alerting me to the creative array of bicycle themed caches along this road.

Have enjoyed these art things, but not the clamber through the new weed/prickle growth. Found it though and avoided the road kill too as eell

Good hiding place

Found as part of an Orange and surrounds geomission with fitzy_1965, AngelG27 & Sol de Lune (signed as FASS to save time & space) Top weather, great company and lots of laughs meant for an epic weekend of caching all round!

Hahaha! What cool road to travel down with all these sculptures! Easy find at GZ and AngelG27 took the stop for a photo opportunity!

Thanks for the hide, vra

Fitzy_1965, SpecimenX, Sol de Lune and I (logging as "FASS") headed from Canberra to Orange and surrounds for a caching blitz over the 30-31 July weekend. We logged around 1000kms in the geo-Jeep. I scored around 130 caches for the weekend. The visit was characterized by blue skies, green paddocks, lots of water off and on road, a fair amount of mud, and good company. Still plenty of caches to collect and scenic spots to explore on a return trip. Thanks to my fellow travelers for a fun weekend, and the COs for all their efforts in putting out and maintaining the caches.

Cache number 26 for the day found at 1210 and 111 for the trip. This was well worth the drive as I had not come across this art series before. Truly memorable - I can't believe this series has not received more FPs - here is at least one more along with another photo for the collection! Thanks vra

11289. Headed up to the Orange region with AngelG27, Sol de Lune and specimenX ("FASS") for a fun-filled weekend of caching. Lots of caches found, a few not found, and a lot of laughs had as we toured around over 2 full days as far north as Wellington which resulted in 124 finds for me.

Headed out early again today for a final big run of caches before heading home to Canberra. Next stop for the day on a loop up to Wellington and back. Jumped out of the Jeep for another quick find at GZ. Log signed, cache returned and we were off to the next one.

Thanks vra !! The artworks are really fun to see !

TNLN - TFTC !!

Find Number 3632

The Booo's found this cache!

The Booos are heading home over the mountain after a short overnight tour into the Parkes area.

A nice quick find that almost stumped me

Thanks vra for placing this cache

Found the cache!

Did this cache as the family (The Booos) are returning over the mountain after a short overnight tour of Parkes.

Thanks vra for placing this cache.
TFTC.

Found it. Great animal artworks

We found this cache after just a bit of a look around at different options. The artwork along this road is certainly worth seeing. We have seen quite a few in previous years but some others are new to us which keeps the area interesting. Thank you for placing this cache to draw attention to a district attraction. The log was signed and all replaced where it belonged before we continued the hunt for the day.

Death to all spiders

The geo crew and i fought the spiders till the death but we cane out victorious, TFTC

Found it

Number 8 today. Took balloon left toy car. SL TFTC

Loved these two the most out of all the sculptures - tftc!

Nice quiet spot. TFTC

Gps all over the place but with persistence we found it TFTC

Love the art along this road.
Thanks for putting one here vra.
Could not find today, A lot of trees cut along this section of road and a landowner has piled a lot up and is burning pile by pile along this section. Climbed over and through the cut and heaped up logs but to no avail. Hope this cache lives to see daylight again.

We're on our way home to Sydney after a night in Yeoval for Dead Men Talking - a play/ conversation between Banjo Paterson and Henry Lawson. Really enjoyed the drive along this road. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

May I just say, to anyone who has a fantastic fear of spiders like I do...good luck!
They were all around to cache!
I could get straight to it because of them. Finding the cache was easier enough but getting to it was hell!

TFTC ^_^

QLD Mega trip 2015 with Sol de Lune. On this almost 400km road trip we drove from Canberra to Stanthorpe caching in all the towns along the way with mostly great success. Around the Mega there were heaps of caches to be done including a few power trails. Despite the weather we got all of the planned caches done.

On day one of our trip we headed from Canberra to Dubbo. The caching was in the second half of the day at small towns and around Dubbo itself. Mostly it went soothly. Thanks.
