I have been trying to keep this open but the muggles get to it every time I replace it so another of the loop series bite the dust.
Got me again, Trev!! I looked at everything orange, no cache. I left the dogs in the car again, no shade whatsoever, and the breeze is gone.
Are in the Holiday Heer in australien.We from switzerland and Hobby Catcher ) have found good Cache.Thank you.
With CuriousQuest. Arrived at GZ spotted the obvious immediately. I quickly had this cache in hand. Log signed andd cache returned to its spot
Staying with friend in Burpengary and happy to see lots of caches in the locality. Nice one. Fav point alloc for this pleasant series. We found the cache after a short search.[^][^] Thanks to Treking Trev.
Arrived into North Brisbane, have set up the caravan at the showgrounds. Now its time to find a few caches.
We had a wonderful drive around the area, walked in some wonderful parklands & drove along the country roads. This sure is a beautiful area.
Was good to be able to have this cache ready to be found again

Another recently replaced cache has been muggled. I'll have to come up with a better camo job. before replacing it.
This was the best power trail I have done. I usually get bored and go look for traditional caches instead. This one has a lot of variation. Thanks for going to this much trouble to bring us to this area. I lived here 43 years ago and I can't get over the changes. This cache's log was missing and I had run out of paper to replace it. I do have a photo of GZ and the container if req. Thanks again Trecking Trev.
After Mothers day breakfast at Glasshouse, we were quite full and decided a few drive by caches would be in order. After a few drive bys we started to feel a bit energised so we got the bikes out of the back of the van and did the loop. We were amazed at the beatiful areas we rode through - not what we were expecting! Thank you or placing this one.
GeoPuppy came in handy for this one. A quick grab, signed and onto another cache on the Burpengary Loop. TFTC
Out doing the loop with Stealthseeker today.
Approaching from Pump Station, we quickly saw where we needed to be.
SS made the grab on this one.
Wow - the last of the loop. That was a really lovely ride and we got to see a side of Burpengary we didn't know existed. We'll have to return to grab #14 once it's back online.
Thanks Trev for a great trail.

The last in the loop for us today. Thanks Treking Trev for a great excuse to spend an afternoon out with Aussiemates. Lovely areas next to the lake and some imaginative cache containers.
Well this is the end of the loop for most but we still have to do numbers 1 to 6. Have decided to do 3 to 6 and drive closer for 1 and 2. TFTC
Out doing the " Burpengary Loop " on this rainy day with Geo Buddy MinkosDes.
Getting disappointed with this run now. Not often that we have so many DNF's. The worst was yet to come up the road with a destroyed cache.
This loop needs lot of maintenance Treking Trev

Thanks a lot for all the caches!!!
Thanks a lot for all the caches!!!
Last one in the Loop for us today and after stopping at GZ we parked the bikes and did some repairs while grabbing the cache.
Thanks for a great series and the exercise TT. We'll be back to grab the one we missed.

While following the path and the GPS to this cache we spotted three people up ahead. They seemed to be stopped with their attention focused on something one of them was holding. Drats ..... Right about where we should be looking for a cache. Long story short, we met KDn23 who were just finalising their log entry for this cache. We had a good chat about there new found enjoyment for caching. A very keen junior catcher in their team who told us all about their first find of a trackable.
Last one in the loop finished now after return trip and caches replaced. Neat log holder. Tftc
Back on the north side of town again and so another chance to finish the Burpengary loop we started in August 2013 when we found cache numbers one to seven
Starting in the reverse direction this time and all the caches were found easily as the coordinates and hints were pretty well spot on. Unfortunately we had to bypass number 14 (twice) due to kids sitting around fishing off the bridge - oh well next time to complete!
A recent maintenance run meant all containers were in good order. The only hint that needs updating is for #8 where the cache is no longer 'behind the light' - the rest of the hint is still valid though.
Thanks 'Trekin Trev' for an interesting series around some nice waterways.

This cache is missing as confirmed by neighbour across the street who has seen many cachers find it. Probably found by kids across the fence who must be able to see caters when they are playing in their backyard.
Very inconvenient of the muggles across the road to have a garage sale! Had to wander over the road to browse and distract them while freddo found the prize!
Found very easily with the clue. Long day caching out in Burpengary and surrounds. TFTC
Big day out at Burpengary and surrounds with Karenhippo and lucky for us, it was a bit cooler.
Well, what can I say ... the Hint works Surprised this one hasn't been muggled.
TFTC Team Treking Trev with one k iPad's autocorrect does not like you.

Have been pretty quiet since our return from overseas so today decided to attack a good set of caches that appeared in this area while we were away.
Had right idea quickly.

This was the last cache for us today. #18.
Needed to use a lot of stealth.
Upon leaving this cache to return to the start of the loop.
We were attacked by for the third time by a magpie.
TFTC Treking Trev We enjoyed the power trail.

Tried starting the series down by the Lake but that was muggle central so it was off on the geocycle to take in the Burpengary Loop. A true ride by for this one.
Out chasing a FTF so decided to head this way on the way home to grab this one remaining cache in the area.
Nice quick find.

My path through the caches in this series seems to be a bit off the suggested route as I decided to look for this one after finding #3.
I had left the missus in the car near No 1 and rang her to meet me near this cache.
A group of 3 young muggles bikes came past and must have known the owners of the house near GZ as they stopped there to climb up the fence and talk to them.
Luckily my wife arrived and I could talk to her while waiting for the muggles to leave. Then I spotted the neighbours across the road were busy gardening and it took a bit of stealth to wander back and retrieve the cache. It was a surprise to see a nice clean cache and logbook.
The missus decided to go to the spots so I arranged to meet her later back near #4 while I did a few more caches and I headed to the Pump Station.

Finally finishing the loop, with geokid in toe we set out to finally finish the loop we had already started we had to finish from #10 upwards was a great walk lots of bird life in surrounding lakes and ponds. Thank you very much Trev for setting the loop up. TFTC
Finally spending the day up this way, clearing up this area.
As with the previous searchers, no luck for us either. Might need a CO check.

With Net88 and Captain Terror. We couldn't find this cache though we did spot what the hint was probably referring to.
Last find for the day, and the easiest yet. Found at 1605.
Happy day for me. 15 of 17 Burpengary Loop plus Pump Station. Also now have hit 50 caches during this.

Thanks Trekin' Trev. I have walked and cycled these tracks for years but never enjoyed them like I did today..
As I approached this one I was wondering how you could hide anything around here..... then I spotted a likely spot!!
Nice hide, thanks TT.
Nice hide, thanks TT.
A quick walk by grab, walked away to sign log and, then returned it, sight unseen, hope no one was observing from the windows across the road. Thanks Trekking Trev.
TFTC quick easy find. Lady across road didn't seem surprised we stopped. TNLNSL
Spot on clue! ) we stopped to "turn off my sons light on his bike" and had enough time for a sign and stealthy return. TFTC, great fun!
Very good cords..spot on ..yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh made it 11.55k walk ..feet are falling off will sleep well tonight ...TFTC
Last find for today. Thanks for the afternoon TT. Back to finish next time out.
