Geocache Description:

I-275 Bike Trail - Shelby cache is on the I-275 Bike Trail between Hines Drive and Lake Pointe Soccer Park. There is a parking lot at Hines Drive or at Lake Pointe Soccer Park. You can also view an online trail map on Google Maps. It includes markers for official access points to the trail.


This is one of a set of six caches to extend this section back towards Lake Pointe Soccer Park off Haggerty Road. This section picks up near the Plymouth Township Senior Center. As with the other sections, I am naming them after bicycle manufacturers. This cache is named after Shelby Cycle Company.The Shelby Cycle Company manufactured bicycles in Shelby, Ohio starting in 1925. They were known for their styling, with many of their models fitting the cruiser bicycle style. Shelby was eventually acquired by AMF.

This is intended to be a Ride & Grab cache. The cache container is a small camo painted bison tube. You will need a log extractor. Please bring your own pencil or pen.

I have found that a quick and simple log extraction tool can be made from a small paperclip. Straighten one end out. Grab just a small portion (maybe 1/32 of an inch or 1 millimeter) with a long-nose or needle-nose pliers then bend it at a right angle. I have attached one to the cache you can use. Please leave it for the next person.
