Current Goal

This cache should travel only in a - let's say 50 km - corridor along the ancient trade route that the German "Bundesstrasse 1" follows. And please... Make pictures of this bug on B1 Street signs...

Dieser Cache sollte nur in einem ca. 50 km Korridor entlang der Bundesstrasse 1 reisen. Und macht Fotos von ihm, an den Strassenschildern.

About This Item

I grew up near Aachen, Germany and when I studied Biology there, I would pass by a sign right on the border to the Netherlands, passing by a sign on Vaalser Strasse that said "B1 starts here and goes all the way to Berlin".

2017... serving as a hired gun for a slaughterhouse-owned turkish-run drug manufacturing business I was sent to Berlin in an unglorious mission.. and every day I'd go to work on Karl-Marx-Allee... one day I realized that I was driving East on the last leg of the same road, the B1. So one day, I made a right where I'd generally make a left and went all the wyy to Kostryzyn, or Küstrin in Poland. And found the sign where B1 ends...

Now, look up "B1" or "Bundesstrasse 1"on Wikipedia (German Version) and learn - like I did - that it's a bit of a German Mother Road, like the Rhine is the mother river.. and Route 66 or Highway one are.... travelling along ancient trade routes that have been used thousands of years ago....

A must to make this a travel bug. So I put on the three currencies - Dutch Gulden, now replaced by Euros, Deutsche Mark and a Zloty form Poland.

But...let it travel in the B1 corridor only, pleeeeeeeaaase.
