Logs
I added a new log and ziplock bag. The container is damaged but I did not have a spare. Should be okay for a while as long as things stay relatively dry. Yftc
A quick and easy find on my way to Muswellbrook today.Log is a bit water damaged but dry both bag and cache are damaged and require some TLC
Hi, thanks for the cache. The plastic container has broken down and the plastic bag for the log is torn. Sadly I dont have any replacements for this one.
Greetings from Las Vegas Nevada!
Crossing the country doing some caching on the way. Container is toasted, needs replacing.

Whoever closed it last didn't close it properly as it was filled with water and the logbook is wrecked. at least we found it though!
Some of the tight pull offs were a bit hair raising but thankfully Mrs Woodyrothwell has really pulled her finger out in the navigation stakes. It may actually be due to the sketchy reception out here in places.
Normally my wife counts down the metres and I hear “800 metres, 700 metres, 600 metres” and then complete silence. That’s when I know she had lost interest and is checking Instagram. tftc

Enjoying a short break in the Hunter Valley to play golf. Thought we'd snag some caches while here. Thanks for bringing us to this side of the Hunter valley much nicer area than the lovedale side.
Thanks for the effort put in

#7605 (7 of 11 today)
The Geowife is up on the Central Coast with friends and if I come up today I can stay the night and we can head home tomorrow.
And if I head up early I can cache to my hearts content and arrive in time for dinner. Sounds like a plan!
Beat the traffic heading north for the long weekend (bonus) and decided to target my 360 from home stats - I’m short in a few degrees neat dead north.
So with a list loaded into my iPhone I hit the backroads to Singleton.
Got 11 on a long drive, without any DNFs.
And arrived at my friends dead on 6pm.
Good day!

Full log to follow, but all the Motorcycle series are very very similar...

We came up to Hunter Valley for a few days of food and wine. Staying at the WinMark winery at Broke I took a bit of time to drive into the direction of Wollembi for a few caches along the way.
All caches were found in good condition. TFTC jfindit!

Out for a Sunday drive and a picnic. A short stop as we went from Broke to Wollombi. TFTC
I would love to ride a Gold Wing. But not in Europe (home). The country is to small. Ridding this machine on Australia roads must be great. The machine is made for long trips.

After Easter egg hunt this morning and a swim meet n a sunny day I was granted a couple of hours to get some supplies and pick up some caches. Drove to Fernances Crossing and then Cessnock and then back to our camping spot via Broke. was a bit surprised at the lack of caches but ended up with a good collection.
Last one for the day and another motorbike in the obvious location.

On a trip to drop off Christmas presents to the NSW family, and to see our new great granddaughter and now the long trip home. This cache provided a perfect excuse to travel slowly and grab a cache or two. Thanks jfindit for the stop off and chance to stretch our legs.

Tftc, went on a georoad trip with Azzepious today. Initial plan was to head to Cattai and grab some from there then to the Windsor area. Well, we ended up changing our minds and heading to Broke up the Putty Road instead!
This was our return journey! Our GPS was playing up down here and we found ourselves overshooting the caches a few times and having to turn around to get them a few times. Otherwise a lovely trip in a lovely part of NSW!

Today we drove from Broke to Mangrove Creek Dam and had 40 finds and 4 DNFs. We had a great day! TFTC
Find #665
After our trip into Yengo to find 'From the Dreamtime' earlier this year, we
decided to explore further south today, so planned a route from home to Broke, then south through Paynes Crossing, Wollombi, Laguna, Bucketty, Kulnura and on to Mangrove Creek Dam. We then had an interesting drive home through Brush Creek Road through Yarramalong, so we now know where our next day out will take us...
Final stats for the day read at 40 finds, 4 DNFs and 280km traveled.
Some more of the Classic Motorcycle series was up first as we snaked down from Broke, we were cut short last time by the Williams Bridge closure. Good to see it has been replaced. We dropped a little gear carabiner in half a dozen of the Motorcycle caches today.

Today we travelled from Broke taking in the Classic Motorcycles To Brush Creek . We were accompanied today by c & pprass.
This bike certainly doesn't compare to my Honda 50 in 1968.

Found at 8:23 AM GAFF1 in the company of DiMorgan.
Last day of our stay in the Hunter and off we now go south to do a few caches. First stop a guard rail with a cap on top of it - is that the cache?
This is the bike that my brother in law owns - We call it his sissy bike.
Thanks xPhenoms.

Out on the road today with mr_roo on a fast paced, kilometre munching cache cleanup, and grab for numbers mostly, as he approaches his 8k and me 2k.
Our destination touched Ourimbah, Gosford, Mooney, Cowan, Peats Ridge, Wollombi, Laguna, Broke, Bulga and Somewhere near Putty and Yengo, ending with a touch of Cessnock, and Charlestown at the Asylum.
Thats another one... not many to go now...
Rescued 2 lonely Trackables...
And one Scrub Tortoise up the road.

As a proud owner of a GoldWing, I saw this on a trip to The Hunter, & could not resist grabbing the cache.

#502.... first and only find of the day on the way back to Sydney after a wonderful trip away in the Hunter. Looking forward to doing the rest of this series. Dropped off a trackable. TFTC
6813 Cache Found
Travelled down the Thin Black Line again early this morning down to the Big Smoke "Sydney". Took the opportunity to pick up a few new caches that have appeared on my map. I nicknamed these machines the USS Enterprise you could land a helicopter on them they are that big.
Another favourite just for the memories

With a break in the weather today and no rain on the forecast we decided to complete the remaining classic motorcycle series. We made our way along the scenic country road finding caches on the way till we reached the small town of Broke where we stopped for lunch. All caches in good repair with all logs dry thanks again for the series Jfindit.
In the hunter valley for our 10th wedding anniversary. Cache #3 for the day. Nice quick find. TFTC.
Find #412 at 9:49 AM.
Nice quick find. If only I had a bike, fantastic day for a ride.
Thanks jfindit for the cache.

Found this cache while on a trip from Singleton to the Gosford area on a nice sunny winters day. This is number 3 of 45 found on this trip. I loved the photos of each bike in the container matching the name of the cache.
Thanks to jfindit for putting out this series.

Out for my usual geo-jaunt with Opa-Shrek, this week following the back road from Broke to Bucketty. This is our 3rd geomission that has brought us a swag of Classic Motorbikes along the way (with still more yet to get!) - and I've run out of Motobike songs, Motorbike Jokes, and Motorbike Quotes, but "luckily" I had the get-daughter (6yrs) with me to provide a commentary of the bikes along this route.... But unfortunately the Honda Goldwing was deemed "boring" Fortunately, the other added benefit of having a geokid in tow was that she ensured that each cache was left with a little SWAG for the next 'kiddy-customer'
Thanks for another fine cache in a fine series Jfindit

This week's geo-excursion with Mumma-Kel took us north for a caching run down the Great North Road from Broke to the Central Coast. What made this run worthwhile for us (apart from the joy of a drive along a road I haven't previously travelled) was the swag of Classic Motorcycle caches placed along the route recently by jfindit ... this was the first of them we picked up today. Having already done all the ones at the Central Coast end, we knew what to expect here and so this proved to be a quick park & grab.
Thanks for bringing us up here today jfindit ... and for the smiley too.
