This cache has been archived.

Simply Paul: Thanks to everyone who came to this damp Sunday stroll - most managed about 10 miles in the rain from Ivinghoe Beacon to Wendover. A second part, RIDGEWAY RUN - THE BIGGER EVENT, has now been set up for September the 11th 2005. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=b2b565ec-ca1e-4928-b1c0-3cb2c6897d61 I hope lots of people will risk the weather again!
