Geocache Description:

I got the idea for this cache after Lance Armstrong won his 7th straight Tour de France (Yay, by the way )

A Four stage multi over 4 troy parks/wooded areas. Stages 1-3 are lamanated cards with the coords written on them, and the final stage is a small ammo box with standard swag inside.

This cache is also the launchpad for my first TB Sibling Rivalry Racers: Surferacf.

Stage 1: Huber Park.
You will need to get on the fitness trail. Choose the trailhead farthest towards the tennis courts. The cahce will be on your LEFT, 10-15 feet into the woods.

Stage 2: Boulan Park
The trail leading in from the parking lot off of Northfield Parkway is reccommended. (Note: This parking lot has a 'No Parking" sign, so you'll probably have to use the Crooks Rd enterance/lot). NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO DISLODGE OR REMOVE THE MARKER!!!

Stage 3: Beach Road Park
A nice little park most people don't know about. This stage is tricky; the really isn't a trail, or trailhead for that matter. Look for a clearing in the brush towards the front of the park that leards directly to the creek. Walk farther back into the park, and you should spy a tiny path that goes a few feet back in the woods. From there, follow the slightly defined trail to the marker.

Stage 4: Troy High School
The Final cache is in a surprisingly nice little natural area behind the high school. Please use good judgement as to when to look for this stage. The best parking is in the subdivision just south of the final stage. YES THIS IS LEGAL!, although not from 10 am to 1 pm. There is an opening into the woods at the turn in the wide grassy path. Please Do Not park in the dropoff zone at the school.

I highly recommend driving from stage to stage. On the other hand, your could try to be like Lance and raise the terrain to a 4 by biking all 10 1/2 miles roundtrip....

Happy Hunting!
