Some UBike stations could not host a cache because they are too close to existing caches or for other reasons. Therefore I call these stations "orphans."
This multi cache will take you to some of these orphans where you must collect information to calculate the final cache location. Please visit each of the stages to collect the following information (Stage 1 is the posted coordinates):
Stage 1
1. How many bicycle parking stations in total are there at this U-Bike station? The answer is A.
A = The total number of bicycle parking stations.
2. The UBike kiosk is located between which two parking spots? The 2 two-digit numbers, lowest to highest, are B and C, and are written in this format: B--2 and C--1.
B, C = The two parking spots that the kiosk is located between.
3. On the UBike kiosk there are numbers written in white ink, in this format: 08--D--03. [10/7/20: The numbers have faded, so the answer is 8404]
D = This 4-digit number.
Stage 2
1. How many bicycle parking stations in total are there at this U-Bike station? The answer is E.
E = The total number of bicycle parking stations.
2. The UBike kiosk is located nearest to which bicycle parking spot? The number will be in this format: F--2.
F = The parking spot number nearest the kiosk.
3. On the side of the UBike kiosk is a sticker with numbers. You are looking for numbers in this format: B01S030G. G is a 3-digit number.
G = The number on the kiosk sticker.
Stage 3
1. How many bicycle parking stations in total are there at this U-Bike station? The answer is H.
H = The total number of bicycle parking stations.
2. The UBike kiosk is located nearest to which bicycle parking spot? The number will be in this format: I--1.
I = The parking spot number nearest the kiosk.
3. On the side of the UBike kiosk is a sticker with numbers. You are looking for numbers in this format: B01W030J. J is a 3-digit number.
J = The number on the kiosk sticker.
Final coordinates
N25 00.XXX
E121 18.YYY
XXX = A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J-8,690
YYY = A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J-8,061
The cache container is big enough for small TBs and swag. Please bring your own pen; the log sheet must be signed to qualify as a Find.
