Geocache Description:

How do you get a Chav into a box? To find the answer you need to do this two stage cache in the appropriately named Walkman Wood on the south side of Knutsford.

The cache was inspired by a recent encounter with some thieving Chav who stole my new mountain bike whilst on a geocaching trip in the vicinity. He would not necessarily appreciate the attraction of this location.

Pandemi's (ex) Bike

Stage 1 contains a relatively simple puzzle which will give you the coordinates to Stage 2 a few hundred yards further into the wood. This area is very popular with dog walkers so either bring a dog so you can blend into the background or just be a bit patient to allow the coast to clear.

Parking can be found on Goughs Lane, right next to the entrance to the wood at coordinates N53.17.420 W002.21.725, although be careful as it is used as a bit of a rat-run for vehicles trying to avoid the town centre.

The hunt takes you on part of a delightful walk through the wood which ultimately takes you all the way up to the Dun Cow pub on the main Chelford Road if you keep going. Do not be put off by the "Shooting in Progress" signs - these apply to Chavs only.

Good luck, lock up your valuables and watch out for the Chavs hiding behind those bushes!
