We are on a caravanning trip around Australia seeing the sights and finding a few caches along the way. We left Canberra today and as we didn't have too much planned we decided to stop in Hall, get the bikes out and go for a bit of a ride. There was a group of over 20 riders going the other way. We were glad when they had ridden past us. It is a great track to ride we really enjoyed it. This was out turnaround spot today. This cache was found a lot faster than the last wherigo one.Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache

#23103 @1645A lovely day to be outside in nature biking and caching. A quick find once at GZ. TFTC.

After a stint as a volunteer at the RSPCA this morning I headed to Taylor to knock off a few outstanding caches along the CCT. TFTC.

Another quick find on the saddle. Thanks

A whirlwind DeJa'Vu CCT experience. Been a few years, good to be back. All caches found without issue bar the last find where I suffered an episode of geocaching blindness. All good in the end. TNLNSL TFTC

A crisp but sunny morning to visit the CCT again. Lots of birds around, sunny their lungs out. No MTBers this early, but I did come across two walkers and a runner.Nice to get some exercise and get out of the house.TFT wherigo C, DSD!CCT, I'll be back!

With a few hours spare today we decided to target this bunch of caches on the CCT. Lovely to be back up here; all these caches were found with a minimum of fuss. A random pic from today's adventures attached.I like state borders, so this cache seems appropriate for a favourite on behalf of the series we completed today.Thanks, DSD!

Found myself in a corner and bingo. TFTC

Mid-morning SocialClimber decided to gather the team for what would be a fast-paced hike starting from Taylor. We all had limited time due to family commitments early afternoon so we knew what we were in for, in the 2 hours we had spare.The hike turned out to be far easier, and flatter, than expected so any huffing and puff was kept to a limit. The trail is green and plenty of native grass flowers to enjoy in the Spring sunshine with views in a number of directions. We came across a mob of kangaroos which is always a delight. We also crossed paths with one other hiker and two cyclists going in the opposite direction to us. Having cycled this trail many times before it was thoroughly enjoyable to do it on foot with friends this time. It was a fabulous exercise circuit with caching being a great reason to come back again. TFTC DARKSIDEDAN.

#5052 After reaching this point my phone was struggling slightly with reception and Wherigo felt the need for authentication, so I continued on my way and checked back in on my homeward trip.All went well and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC.

The Canberra Centenary Trail is an awesome walk / ride that I highly recommend.I did the original caches along here way back on 29 Feb 2016. Boy has the views changed as far as the suburbs go ! I was with the CO when these new caches were placed, and now that the first to find etc has gone I'm claiming a find.Thanks for the cache and the fun day DSD !!

Chooo ooo [FTF] on a cold Spring morning! Did this series of caches on the bike! I love this bike track! Have done it many times. A little disappointed to find some of these caches were still the original containers from the recently archived caches, which in some cases were not in great nic... Also a pity to see the old caches archived... Even though they were not super old just yet, they were getting there, and I think trying to keep old caches alive is favourable... All in all, a pleasant ride meeting a few other cyclists along the way.Thanks DARKSIDEDAN!
