WE HAVE ARRIVED

Well, it has happened. velocache.net is now a fully operational battle station. Prepare yourselves.

Before I digress, which I am known to do, let me start off by giving some credit and handing out some thanks. This would not have happened without you all. You know who you are. Thank you. The new site would not be in existance without Buttars, if you run into him, give him a hug and buy him a beer. HUGE thank yous to the veterans out there who have kept this afloat in times of trouble and triumph...I have personal things to say to you that will have to wait until we have a face to face.

At the pokercache party on September 19 I would really like to take a bit of all of your time and preach a little about "the game". We'll see, I will probably just get drunk and cry a lot.

SO. Go to the site. Familiarize yourself. It is different than the one we play on now but can do all of the things we do now AND MUCH MUCH MORE. You will need to create an account. It is free and always will be for players. I realize some of you have already been in and have looked around but it is time for everyone to come on board. Texting from a phone to the site works. E-mailing too. There is a great forum feature that we can all cache ourselves in as well. This site is still in beta. It is not finished so now is the time to see if we can break it.

For now, play around. Posting "real" caches is not off limits but I think it might serve us better to get really comfortable with the new toy before we go "live". Post pictures of your cats and dogs. Go to the forum and talk about bikes. Have fun.

LOVE to you all. -A. Mortician

Missed #3 but made it to the top


Nice job Treker! & thanks for the warning, it saved me much time & allowed me to keep on going. I reached the top of The Hill on my fixie in 1 hour 27 minutes (with a flat tire). I wasn't going to post anything but i wanted to thank the three guys who actually got out of their car to cheer me on! Thanks, i couldnt have done it without you.

  1. HOLY SHIT! What's your gear ratio? And how was the trip down?

  2. Nice job, you beat my best time by, oh, about an hour. I was slowing to introduce myself after we exchanged shouts, but seems you were cruising up the hill.

  3. To Wino...40 in the front (the only one i could find at the BBP that fit) and 16 in the back, with 170mm cranks it gives me a gear ratio of 5. The unfortunate thing is this only gives me 2 skid spots! I was dreading the ride down and the flat tire gave me an excuse not to (cuz i stupidley didnt bring any tools) so i got a ride, no excuses next time!
    To Treker...Haha i was beat at the top though, i should have stopped! especially because i wanted to thank you for hiding the first cache i ever found (the one at idaho river sports)
