seems like the local school children are doing the rounds......no use putting in another replacement

Had a good poke around without any luck. Resorted to checking the clue, that made it obvious enough to slap you in the face. Checked the hidey hole......still no joy. This one may have been muggled. CO, I took a photo if you want me to verify the position for you. I also work nearby and could set a replacement if you want. Cool

Heard a sound from the location of this geocache so had to photograph with a flash, just to make sure there was nothing more sinister than a container waiting for me inside. Another fun hiding place!

5th of 9 on a hot bike ride, but great cycling beside the cooling creek and cover

Cheers for the cache, wingaap. Have now done quite a few of yours over a couple of days.

Nicely tucked away in its niche, this one was spotted (sort of) by its attachment which is not attached, (if that makes sense) The cache itself was deeper and presented a challenge to extricate but shortly I had the prize. Left all pieces wher I found them and continued on my travels. tftc wingaap.

Don't let the monkey fool you - he likes to hang on a bit! First of this kind of find for me and a lot of fun. TFTC
 
02-Aug-13
That's an out-there hide and we spotted it straight off but it was just a bit too far back to be an easy retrieval though that wasn't a problem for long. TFTC wingaap.
 
25-Jul-13
looked up from the gps and I was staring right at it, what luck
logged the 23rd on the log, was meant to be the 25th- not that it really matters
 
20-Jul-13
Found but being watched by muggles...waiting waiting go now. Tftc
 
10-Jul-13
This hide had me scratching my head for a few minutes as I scanned the area for possible hides that didn't involve plunging too far into the bush. Wry smile when I spotted the likely hiding spot; a favourite point for the chain on the cache. Thanks wingaap.

Tricky one for the vertically challenged Smile TFTC
 
02-Jul-13
Found by dad. Nice one to start our geocache adventure this afternoon.

You must be tall if that's chest height, good one though, nice hiding spot.
 
08-Jun-13
Luckily soccer was almost finished for the day. Easy find thanks to the clue. What a great hide. Number 24 for the day.
 
Great hiding spot. Did have to be careful of muggles when putting the cache back!
 
02-Jun-13
A nice quick one to finish off the afternoon; the GPS had me slightly off but the clue was spot on.

Went for the last of the three today but got interrupted by muggles and dog playing in the creek. Had a quick search but proved to be well hidden, couldn't do any real poking around so will have to attempt another day.

A Quiet day of caching with Mastamak & BosNewellgus. Our aim was to complete the On Your Bike series, having completed that series it was time to move on to the next series. Having done another one at the field, we grabbed this cache. It was a quiet day at the field and I can only guess what it must be like here on a sports day.

The cache was in good condition at the time of visit and found on a bright fresh day.

This was the 6th find of 30 finds for the day.

Out and about on a day of caching with TriBre & BosNewellgus.

GPS took us right to GZ and with the hint we had it in hand very quickly.

Wanting to attempt these caches in the right way, I hired a city Cycle in the CBD and headed out to Newmarket where this ride would start. There are a couple of large hills between the CBD and the start of the bike trail and those city cycles are at least 25kg! Anyway I was soon on the cycleway and enjoying the ride and caches.

This was my favourite hide so far and it took a bit of extracting,but I got there in the end. Thanks Wingaap for this great series of caches along a beautiful cycleway. TFTC.

Glad I was looking for this one on a Sunday. I can see it would get very busy here sometimes. Found the cache container lying on the ground so I had to guess where to place it. Hope I got that right. Thanks wingaap.
 
07-Apr-13
Our first geocache! Hooked now!
 
05-Apr-13
Out tonight with little miss [purple]Nyssaflutterby[/purple], we decided to continue our journey in the area to clear some of the bike way caches, but this time, due to rain, we went by car.
Twisted this one was quite interesting to get to Razz Nyss had just been saying that this one was able to be a "drive in" due to the field having an open gate... well, not tonight. being a friday night, of course the gate was closed, but that didnt stop us from squeezing echo through a small gap and making our way to GZ Red Face
naughty naughty girls.
it didnt take us long to find the cache at all and once found we were back to find the next one (also a "drive in") although someone driving by seemed quite interested in our car.

Thankfully there was no school holiday sport on the field, and it was a fairly quiet afternoon in the area, the occasional bike rider and pet walker, but nothing that help up the job of finding a cache to long.

1st of 5 finds today at 10:09 on a morning bike with Pipzi.

Many a year ago I played rugby against Marist. Today, I was here to play two other "sports". Cycling and Geocaching. I really like when I can combined the two. It makes each that much more fun. This was a quick find.

My first find of the afternoon. Clue made it easy. Left trinket.

Good clue. Nice find. A few muggles out and about walking their dogs before tea time - but with stealth found this tucked away safe and dry. TFTC
 
06-Mar-13
This was a quick drive by for Net88 and myself today. It didn't take long for me to find the cache Smile

Another quick grab, hardly a smuggle around. Feeling quietly confident today.
 
15-Feb-13
Ran from the last one to this one. Must be just about the 20k? Cheers Wingaap

Edit:

I had seen this project, dubbed W20K on FB and given that I had 1 Wingaap find prior, had taken it upon myself to get my Wingaap finds up.

I wasn't supposed to go out today but I noticed the finds were getting very close to 20k and convinced the family to go to the Enoggera bikeway series. The geokids enjoyed themselves, and along the route found the enchanted forest park. They stayed there with Mrs PJATPAC while I went on to get the next few finds that I thought should push over the 20k. As an aside, that park is fantastic! We all spent some time there after the close Wingaap hides were found.

It turns out this was actually the 20,000th find on Wingaap's caches Big Grin. I am just humbled to be a part of something so amazing and grand in our game Smile. A big cheers to Wingaap for all the cachers whose faces have smiles because of his hides and all the hiders who were inspired to create a better hide.

I look forward to finding the rest of Wingaap way!

Thanks for all your efforts Wingaap, you've created something special for Geocaching in our region Big Grin.

Continued on our way and fortunately the worst of the showers held off. Enjoyed the walk along the creek. At GZ it was a quick find again immediately spotted by Mrs CF while Mr CF was about to descend lower. thanks Wingaap for the cache.

Sometimes it seems nature goes out of it's way to make the ideal place to hide a cacheCool Happy to see it has been put to good use [^] All is dry and well, TFTC wingaap Big Grin

this cache has many ants inside so kids did not want to touch this one. TFTC
 
16-Dec-12
I think nature meant for a cache to be placed here. Easy grab for me. TFTC
 
MrsGreenGeckos and I got leave passes this afternoon to have a wander around some of the geocaches around my home. I have had these caches on my 'radar' since moving in here (at my father-in-law's) since March this year.

With my new get fit campaign finally allowing me the fitness to pedal great distances, this was one of our finds.

Again with the 'Evil Genius' tag, this one was a great place to find a cache.

Out caching with MischievousMaverick today. Nice hide TFTH Smile
 
03-Oct-12
not from their as I explain to the Witch that it’s a good $20 worth of mature head that many would want to have. We dispose of the GLM as the fuzz cruise past the other way, retrieve the cache and roll on. Another cache and then a park daddy. OK we can stop here while you play and I will go and hunt a mythical creacher living under a bridge, GPSR had me in the wrong area but I spotted something sus just before giving up all hope and sure enough the name was correct and behind it sat
 
01-Oct-12
Met the same people walking from the previous cache. Arrived to ground zero and found the obvious place. Quick find. Putting it back was harder as there were people walking, jogging and walking the dogs. Tftc

A little bit of a stretch for this one, but an interesting spot. Not a muggle to be seen on the playing fields today.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 1086. Still continuing our journey along the EBW (by car and foot). I remember that this was a nifty hide with the cache nestled in a safe hiding spot off the ground. Nice one. TFTC

School was well and truly in and the playing fields were not in use. Perfect conditions for locating this nifty little hide.
Thanks wingaap

Found very quickly. Really great spot. Thank you!

Early morning on my first pass by the playing fields it was muggle central here Smile
Lots of joggers and doggie walkers as well as bored kids slowly trudging to skool [:o]
Thus this and three other nearby cachers were put into the "I'll get 'em on me way back" bin Big Grin

In the back of me mind, I already suspected that when I came back this way there would be 10 times as many muggles here.
And I was right !!! Big Grin
The playing fields were full of sporting muggles.
There is method in my madness though.

Unlike the muggles in the area early this morning, the midday muggles were distracted by various shaped balls that needed to be kicked through the oppositions goal posts Razz
On the sidelines I had a leisurely cache find [^]

Another link found in this chain of caches Wink
