Geocache Description:


****** The Series ******

"On Yer Bike -Quebec & Goose Green" is  series of caches around the villages & Hamlets of Quebec, Goose Green and  West & South Harting. They are intended to be found by bike, although of course they can be done on foot or by car if you don't have the energy.


The caches are all close to the road, which are mostly single track, and while the roads are relatively quiet they are used by large farm machinery so please stay aware, and be considerate of other road users.

 

The caches are named after British cyclists of various disciplines, and a few superstars of Le Tour.

When I placed these I cycled about 12km with a total elevation gain of 250m, there are a few gradients along the way but nothing too steep or too high.

 

****** Parking ******

Recommended parking is at one of the two waypoints listed where you can safely park off the road and unrack your bike if needed. If you're driving the series then most caches are close to a spot where you could pull into the side while you grab the cache but please be careful if you plan to park and leave your car unattended  in such places as although you might leave enough room for a car to get past a tractor and trailer might not  be able to get by.

 

****** Refreshments ******

South Harting has a pub, a couple of cafes and a convenience store, there are also refreshments available close to  parking waypoint 1. If you've brought your own scran  then I would recommend stopping at  OYB - Quebec & Goose Green : Varnish  where there's a convenient bench, a bit  of grass  and a lovely view and it's sort of mid circuit, whichever direction you're going.

****** The Rider ******

Peloton isn't a rider, rather it's the name of the main pack of riders in a race who will ride close together as a group in order to reduce overall drag and thereby conserve energy.

****** The Cache ******

You're looking for a small clip-lock box.
