Lang Road Troll @ Canterbury Earlwood, New South Wales, Australia

As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Didnt notice the maintenance log.

6 months for a visit. Come on RMS

Had an old PQ so tried, then saw two DNFs in a Row and left.
Will be back soon.

time for a visit

We live just near here and have looked a lot since we started geocaching. Cannot find it??. Maybe it has been misplaced in a high tide as it hasn't been found for a while!?

Looked everywhere but no luck : (
Might need checking but someone that's found it before.... (or we may just be blind : )

Looked long and hard on both sides of the river. Lots of muggles to contend with. Finally gave up after scrambling around for much too long.

2nd to DNF.....Spent a good 15 minutes between muggles.....Maybe I was looking too hard as mentioned on some other logs. Ah well, I'm sure its there somewhere....Regards, tv

Sheesh! the river was smelly today. I was working at home again, and feeling blobby and unhealthy, so I decided to head for this cache on my bicycle. Got the blood pumping. I think the river would be a nicer spot after some rain, or with a bit of a breeze.

The log is full

A surprisingly quick find (old logs helped so that I looked less dodgy).
Been over this bridge a number of times on the bike.

Thanks again RMS

Nice and easy cache. Found with the family. TFTC!

Stopped by this one on my way home and I set about trying to find it. I soon realised I was searching too hard and came across the cache just as you will find it. Thanks RMS for your cache in what is another great location. TFTC.

Looking around for 10 minutes thinking directly under the bridge it must be! Boyfriend and cousin said to give up. So I decided to go back to basics, turn on compass watch the arrow and wait till said zero or one or two metres, to my surprise all I had to do was crotch to retrieve the container. Found with Porko2003 and Sarah on a rainy day.

Found with supasmile, Sara was in a easy spot but took us a while next time we shouldn't look so hard. Lol

Sorry BB, I found it right under my feet, exactly where my GPS wanted me. Boy there were lots of muggles about at 8.25am. Thanks rinsemesocks, you must have a pallet load of mint containers, and the freshest breathe in Sydney....

We have the dubious honour of being the first recorded DNF. The others in this series were rated the same difficulty and we found them without trouble. We spent quite a while searching where we thought we should but came up with nothing. I guess we just missed it. Thanks

Drove over while in the area and parked down the tight little road. Walked over and as there were a few people around, I waited until all had left. Went to check some spots and saw cache lying on the ground. Lucky it was behaving like a Troll so couldn't be seen anyway. I SL, and placed back where I thought it should go. Thanx again RMS, TFTC.

TFTC, Visited with a group of trackables. It is very difficult making a grab for this Cache between cycalists and avoiding all the ants. It was like every cycalist in Sydney decided to pass over this bridge while I was there.

Had small boy as bait, but luckily no trolls at dusk.

Took small boy as bait, but no trolls this evening.

Part of a cooks river cycle, trolls one way and the 4 stag cooks river cycle way back

I've cycled this bridge many times. It's a great experience in social psychology when many bikes meet at the 180 bend on the bridge!
This time, we stopped to look for the cache which turned out to be much easier than anticipated.

Found it. And no splinters. TFTC

Another nice and easy cache on a great sunny winter day. Didnt even feel like it was winter

Good walk in the series!!

Nice ride tftc

Quick one, thanks

This bridge marks the point at which the proposed Greenway from Iron Cove would meet the Cooks River Cycleway (depending on which plan you read). It's an ambitious project, across multiple council jurisdictions, and one I hope gets up.
Thanks for another cache in your classic style, rinsemesocks. Another in a line of interesting Sydney landmarks.

Found it in the first place I was looking. Nice bridge and nice weather.

Clearing out my un-found local caches this morning. What a great old timber bridge this one is. Thanks RMS.

Great quick find ...just the thing to lift my spirits after yet another DNF at the nearby '#5 urban oasis'!

Oh rinsemesocks! I love finding your caches. Then I say to myself I should have hidden one there. SL TFTC.

Quick find but watch out for the ants. Maybe they're all above ground due to the flooding. TFTC

An easy find on a great day fur a family cycle.

I thought this was going to be a nightmare but I spotted it in my first search!

TFTC.

After finding this the other day and seeing all the rubbish in the river we decided to return on Clean Up Australia day. We did and cleaned up 6 bagfuls of mostly bottles. We were soon joined by about 35 other volunteers from the cooks river mudcrabs. Would be a good spot for a CITO event next time.

I found this a while ago and forgot to log. Oops. At least I think it was this one.

I've cycled over the bridge thousands of times. Just never thought of the street name
Thanks

Nice and easy pickup on my cycle to work.

TeamTops

[Team Tops]

took a while but found it, was thinking it was going to be harder

Found with SESBLOCKER. Nice and quick! TFTC

Found with "The Neighbs". Nice quick find due to super co-ords TFTC!!! [:-)]

Out for a bike ride and spotted a cache right where we going. I thought we had picked up all the caches along the path here so this was a pleasant surprise.

I must be getting used to RMS caches as after parking the bike I thought it's probably going to be over there. Walked straight to it. Thanks RMS for a good reason to stop and rest the legs and other parts of the body.

Last successful find of the day with geoson. 4 for 4... Nothing better than success! TFTF.

Tftc!

Probably the easiest cache I've ever found! Loved it, I didn't have to get dirty or covered in ticks or anything else at all. Didn't have to dodge any Muggles either.

during a bicycle tour along cooks river. TFTC

A quick find on my way home - I recognised this spot from my cycling trips along the Cooks River...these days a pleasant run between Strathfield and Botany Bay could yield a swag of finds along the way!

TNLNSL TFTC, RMS!

Easy peasy with Wanstead Wanderers and Anna, Zoe and Poppy Hill.

nice and easy cache, found by some muggles that we were introducing to geocaching.

How appropriate that our milestone cache, number 400 should be a rinsemesocks cache! The Cooks River is certainly a river at this point. TFTC

Had a great ride along the river today maintaining my caches and picking up the new ones. Think I might have seen another team at the bridge about to begin a cache hunt but not sure. I was done by that stage and heading home. Had the caching brain on and found this quickly with Beatbreaker and Dark Penetration.

Cheers!

Rated: for Overall Experience

Got it thanks

Happy to report a FTF at 22:30 this evening,
Although it was dark the description was enough to point me in the right direction and within 5 minutes of searching I had found the cache.
