Current Goal

This is a race between travelbug TB155GR (this one) and one of the travelbug's owners.  The travelbug has a racecar attached to it in hopes of racing to London in time for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games!  It can make as many stops as it wants in between and if it makes it to London prior to the Olympics, it can hang out there and visit various travelbug hotels in anticipation of the games.  However, it needs to be in London for the Olympic Games!  After the games are over, it needs to race back to its home cache, Ridin' Park (GCHHHV) in Davis, California before said owner graduates from college in 2014!  Who will win the race?  It's on!!!

About This Item

PREVIOUS MISSION: November 21, 2006 - November 27, 2010 -- This is a race between travelbug TB155GR (this one) and travelbug TB154YB, both of which have racecars attached to them. THIS travelbug's goal is to travel to the four corners of the US (Washington coast, Maine, Florida, and Southern California) and return home to GCHHHV (“Ridin’ Park”) before its twin travelbug travels to GCJ63G (“Paris Travel Bug Hotel II”) and back around the world. Bugs can make as many stops in between, but the first one to reach its goal and get home is the winner!  [bug 2 disappeared midway through its journey -- never even left the U.S.  bug 1, however, completed its journey!]

    Well, clearly this travelbug did not get to London in time for the Olympic Games :( Looks like it's time to head home with its tail between its legs so it can get a new mission! So please help it move closer back to the Ridin' Park cache in Davis, California to get a new mission. Thanks!
