About This Item

Dala Racing Horse

The start of the bugrace was during a cache event in Göteborg/Sweden on Saturday, February 14, 2004.

All Travel Bugs participating in the race have to follow some rules:

  • The travel bug has to visit 3 caches in each country it gets to. If a country has less than 3 caches, all caches of that country have to be visited.
  • Each geocacher can only handle one (in the race participating) travel bug at the same time and the same travel bug can only be handled once by each geocacher.
  • The travel bugs have to be personally transported by a geocacher from one cache to the other. It is not possible to ship or mail them.
  • Only geocachers are allowed to handle the travel bugs in the race. While owners of participating travel bugs are not allowed to handle their own or are racing bugs.
  • The travel bugs should only be placed in traditional or multi caches.
  • Once the Travel Bugs have reached the destination cache in South Africa they will have to return to a not-yet-determined cache in Sweden.

    More information can be found on the website of the bugrace.

    Looks like the race is over, so presume its OK just to move around like a normal travel bug? I'll move south
