Current Goal

Vince is racing in the First Annual Travel Bug Cannonball Run! If you can help Vince by moving him west towards California one state at a time (must be bordering states, VERY IMPORTANT) you'd be setting yourself up for possible fame and fortune... sell your story to Time Magazine, Readers Digest..just imagine the possiblities! Help the winning team and what a good feeling it will give you ;-)

About This Item

Vince...need I say more

Please don't concern yourself with those other racers you see passing through your area. They're all pumped up and doing fine... treacherous some of them I've heard too... so keep your youngin's safe and stay away from them... let Vince give you that feeling of Victory and help move him west to the Finish Line at the Pheromone Cache (GCBFEA) in California.

There are few rules but those are restrictive:
-Bugs are allowed to travel only one state at a time (states must share a common border )
-Bugs must be physically placed in a cache in each state visited.

DISCLAIMER: Anyone that picks up this bug is subjecting themselves to possible harrassment for holding onto, kicks in the shins for moving backwards, wild parties and possible fame for helping the cause. Let's Party!

Pop that bottle of bubbly and let's get this show on the road!!

Berkmom sure know's how to celebrate the start of a race. Bit too much bubbly me thinks.. that was one heck of a hangover that kept Vince comatosed for nearly a month. We're back in the race thanks Ambeer and Danielle! Now which way did everyone head?

Friday, April 18, 2003
Thanks Mrs. and lil Brogans... Vince's engines are REV'D There's a party in town!!... uh oh... better not hit the bubbly too hard this time Vince.

After meeting and partying with some more NY cachers Vince heads off with Dekaner, hey don't I know you, haven't I been around here before?

strikeforce1... cache cop gone bad?..or cannonballer at heart... time will tell. And time did tell as Vince speeds along to Ohio. Thanks officer :)

regoarrarr pops up out of nowhere and scoots Vince off to Cleveland. We sure are glad you found out about the cannonball run!

Thursday, May 15, 2003
Who'da thunk Cleveland would be a gateway to Texas? Web-ling fills up Vince's tanks and races him on down to The BIG state of Texas! Now there's a move to write home about

Figured since I was DQ'd from the competition anyways that I would get one of the stranded bugs and take it with me to the event in Watertown NY tomorrow in hopes of finding some cacher headed the right way to give it a boost. Didn't want to play favorites though so I gave the wife and kids a list of CannonBall Bugs in our area and told them to go get one while I was at work.... Vince just got lucky!

Vince wanted to start this show with a party and boy did he - didn't get out of there until the wee hours! But now he is READY to GO! Busting at the seams to make some progress. We will get him out there just as soon as possible and hopefully he will find many cachers to keep him going quickly!
