This cache series takes you on about an 8km ride along one of Sydney's great cycleways. Following the banks of the historic Cooks River you will encounter 4 caches. The first 3 must be found before the final cache can be attempted. At each of traditional caches look for part of the Co-Ords for the Final Cache. Write down the numbers so once you have all 3 you can combine them to reach your goal! Here the co-ords clue is attached to the camo! The ride should only take the average person about 30 minutes plus however long you need to find the caches. They shouldnt be too tricky for experienced hunters ;)
The Cooks River Cycleway makes up a large part of the longer "Bay to Bay" Track which runs from Homebush Bay to Botany Bay. It is 23km in total and at either side of this series you will find a heap of caches along its length. For more information on the Bay to Bay including the maps check out This Link.
The Rest of the Series
Cooks River Cycleway #2, Cooks River Cycleway #3, Cooks River Cycleway #4
This Series is designed to be completed in one trip on a push bike. It could be walked but you will be covering around 8km from Cache 1 to Cache 4 make for a long return trip to the car! Driving is possible but would take longer than the ride due to all the dead end streets and parking. Muggles will be a bane at all stages of this series so avoid peak times (weekends and just after school/work).
This cache has been replaced after a Muggling. PLEASE be careful to replace the camo exactly as it was and to ensure you are not arousing anyones interest in your hunt. Cache is now BYO Pen.
