About This Sponsored Trackable:
Helping millions of people save money with GEICO's great insurance rates can be a demanding job for a Gecko. Like many of us, the GEICO Gecko is ready to get out of the office and soak up some sun while experiencing spectacular places around the world (well, rain or shine). You can help the Gecko get a little R&R by aiding his travel from cache to cache. Be sure to show him the great views along the way!

This trackable Gecko is provided by GEICO as part of the "Find the Gecko Sweepstakes." Simply fill out the entry form and you could win a Magellan eXplorist GC GPS unit, one of the most popular GPS devices for geocaching! There will be one unit given away each week for 20 weeks. Enter each week to increase your chances!

This is not collectible.

Current Goal

To Spread Bike Awareness.

About This Item

Todie was a fellow geocacher who was killed while riding his motorcycle.  The owner of the vehicle was distracted and said he didn't see him. That happens a lot so some of us decided to send out geocoins to make people aware that bikes are every where.  There have been so many accidents involving motorcycles and most of them is caused by a distracted driver.  Everyone is in a hurry.
When I first started caching, caching was a way to get people to a place where they thought was specail. Today, for many it is all about the numbers or the first to find so this gecko is to remind them that all it takes is a split second and your life could be changed for ever.. While you was out caching did you see all that was there near the cache?  I am more aware of my surroundings since joining in to send out geocoins to spread bike awareness. This isn't about casting blame or taking sides. It is about making everyone aware that we must slow down and pay attention. Please place this in another cache to help spread the message.
