This cache has been archived.

Graculus: This cache has been disabled for some time and as the owner has not repaired/replaced it, I am archiving it.

Guidelines:[i] "You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to maintain proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable amount of time - normally a few weeks - in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing."[/i]

Geocache Description:

G:UK cache rating

Motorway Mayhem caches are close to motorway junctions, so you can break up a long journey with a quick cache-and-dash. However this one can be muddy in winter, so bear that in mind if you're in business togs!

This cache is close to Junction 11 of the M4. You'll get a close encounter with Reading's 2MW wind turbine and the Scottish & Newcastle brewery. Recommended parking is next to Costco. From the motorway, take the A33 and turn left at the Madejski Stadium roundabout. The Costco car park may be closed outside of retail hours so here are the opening times, just to be on the safe side:

Mon - Fri: 10:00am - 8:30pm
Sat: 9:30am - 6:00pm
Sun: 11:00am - 5:00pm
Bank Holidays: 10:00am - 6:00pm
Closed Dec 25th, 26th Jan 1st and Easter Sunday

You are looking for a cylindrical lock'n'lock box. Keep an eye out for the wildlife too, we've seen swans and herons here. There are nettles alongside the footpath in summer, but it does get mown occasionally. The path actually continues right up to junction 11, and if you ignore the traffic noise it's strangely pleasant in places!

If you're desperate for a refreshment break, you can head a little further down the A33 to the next retail park where there is a Pizza Hut, a McDonalds and a KFC.
