Current Goal

To skate around the world visiting as many caches as possible. I'd eventually like to travel all the way to the hometown of my owner in Croydon, Surrey, England. Take a picture of me in front of my owner's birthplace: 6 Dennett Road. (He lived here in the 1940's!)

** UPDATE: Now that this goal has been reached, I would like to return home to my owner in Tucson, Arizona. **

** UPDATE: We have setup a cache specially for the return of this TB. If at all possible please return to GC3CPZ7 "The Watchtowers". Thanks! **

Hi, I received an email from Geocaching that stated you discovered the "Inline Skater Bug" TBGX72, on 10/12/2019.
This was a fantastic surprise for me since I was the one that sent in on its journey back in January, 2005 by releasing it through a geocache site owned by my son "ArizonaSandSharks". As you see by its log, it almost accomplished its quest by visiting the home I lived in England back in the 1940s and then disappearing on its return trip to the geocache I created for it here where I live in Tucson, Arizona ("The Watchtowers" - GC3CPZ7) after traveling almost 40,000 miles. It was only about 200 miles away when it got lost.

I would appreciate knowing where you found it and how we might allow it to finish its quest to return to me here in Tucson, Arizona.

This trackable my still be on the move but it is not in the cache...The Kaibab Cache has a large number of international cachers and cachers that are on vacation from the US... there can be a huge gap inbetween logging dates and actual finds so I dont get to worried about a few weeks but this one is pushing the envelope...

I still think it will turn up...I hope it does...It probably just has not been logged into the next cache yet... computers and time can be hard to get while on vacation.

Thanks to Nikkkita for NOT taking this travel bug back to Europe. A special cache has been created for the return of this travel bug to Tucson. See note on "Goals" above regarding "The Watchtowers" cache, which is now the final destination of "Inline Skater Bug".
