Current Goal

Let´s go around the world! In 1936, I traveled around the world and it took me just 97 days (44 days on the road). I also made „Big Apple“–  the world record – I passed 5 300 kilometers in 100 hours and 55 minutes.

Let me follow the SKODA RAPID journey and if you want to, take a picture with me and post it on FB with #skodaheritage.

    Grab It (Not from a Cache) 8/27/2021 Beandi2019 grabbed it   Visit Log

    Tento geocoin jsem našel před více než měsícem v kontejneru keše, aniž by byl uveden v inventáři keše. Bohužel jsem na minci úplně zapomněl. Dnes se mi dostala do rukou a já jsem si ji trochu prozkoumal. Poslední záznamy nemohou být správné, protože mince byla v mém vlastnictví. Minci budu dále posílat na cestu a omlouvám se majiteli, že jsem minci tak dlouho zadržoval. Mnoho pozdravů z Německa, ze Saska.

    I found this geocoin over a month ago in a cache container without it being listed in the inventory of the cache. Unfortunately, I completely forgot about the coin. Today it came back into my hands and I did some research. The last logs can not be correct, because the coin was in my possession. I will continue to send the coin on its journey and apologize to the owner for keeping the coin for so long. Many greetings from Germany, Saxony.
