Geocache Description:

An interesting bit of motoring history.

At the published co-ordinates you will find some information about the Templestowe Hill Climb, which ran every year for 37 years at this site. You can walk part of the course. The cache is a simple offset, based on the info on the sign.

ABCD = The year the first hill climb was run in Templestowe

E = The final hill climbs were a bit like John Farnham's farewell tour. How many "last" hill climbs were there before the real last one?

FGHI = The year the real last one was actually held.

You will find the cache less than 100m away, at
S 37 44.CHC E 145 10.(E/2)0(D+2)

If you take your bike up to the top, it's a hell of a ride back down!

Please ensure the lid is on tightly - you need to press down all around the edges to seal it.
