Kia ora,

This geocoin is in a race against a whole heap of other geocoins and travel bugs all racing their way to Geowoodstock 6 in Sacramento for the chequered flag on May 26, 2008.

It's the Hippie Bus Race to Sacramento

My owner is in New Zealand / Aotearoa and arranged for me to be jacked directly from Geoswag and shipped to the race marshal --> REDUCED CARBON EMISSIONS!!!

      This racer needs to have some details added here... it's tagged with this info, but it's not bad to have it on the travel bug info page as well!

      This coin is in a race with others. It is NOT a trade item and is NOT meant to be kept by another cacher.

      The race begins in Raleigh, NC on October 6th, 2007 and ends at GeoWoodstock VI (GC134MJ) on May 28th, 2008. Please make sure all logs on this bug are entered no later that June 1st, 2008 or they won't count towards the race standings.

      Prizes will be awarded in the following categories:

      Greatest distance travelled

      Most geocaches visited

      Most states visited

      Most points collected for suitable photographs posted with log entries

      Found this item? You could win a prize!

      Any geocacher who logs this Hippie Bus racer when placing it in a cache other than the one it was found in is automatically entered into a monthly drawing for a prize!

      Please don't hold onto this racer even if you plan on attending GW6, unless you happen upon this racer less than a month prior to GW6 and are planning to attend.

      So if you found this travel bug, help my racer out wherever you can, and maybe you'll win a prize! Thanks!!

      Keewee - you're racer was particularly attractive as I tried to decide which one to take with me today. I promise to leave it in a nice location, near one of our interstates so that he can travel rapidly across America.
