Woohoo! What a great experience, both biking the WO&D on a beautiful spring day and the Whereigo cache. This was only my fourth attempt at a Whereigo, the first two were nearly perfect, the last one, a total whiff. This one also executed flawlessly, restoring confidence in the style. Made for a great mini-milestone at 1300. Only issue, not really a big deal, the unlock code was one digit too long and wouldn't unlock until I trimmed it. jeffnerner provided great assistance in solving that issue, as well as help speeding my return to GZ the day after to find a dropped cell phone. Thanks for the adventure!

For my 800th geocache find, I attempted my first Whereigo cache. It was quite the learning experience using a BlackBerry Bold 9700 and OpenWIG 0.4.1. Needed the guidance from the CO before I could understand the process of a Whereigo cache. Everything was working fine until I attempted to save my cartridge in the OpenWIG application, at which point, the application errored. Fortunately, I was able to continue using the CO's device. Great experience! I HIGHLY recommend it!

Had the day off, great weather, haven't been on the bike in a few years, so decided to give this a shot. Great exercise and was able to pick up another cache. I was not able to get the cache for this when I played it, but will be back to claim the smiley.

Had problems with my GPSr (Garmin Oregon), but managed to work through them.

This was my first Wherigo cache to complete. Itsmekellit and myself had a blast doing it! I wish there were more Wherigo caches published. Thanks so much for the adventure!

Completed 19 miles along the trail today. Got to the next to the final stage and the player reset. Had to go back and start over. No worries. Had some help on one of the stages, thanks Mike.

In spite of the technological challenges (which get one star) that resulted in cycling the route twice and not getting a completed cartridge, I enjoyed my first WHERIGO (the route five stars.) I encourage anyone who needs some cycling motivation to go after this one - and bring some patience. :)

This was my first WhereIGo cartridge. Enjoyed the great spring weather and the trip out and back on the W&OD. Didn't have any real trouble until I got to the final, and then the GPSr in my phone had me wandering all over the place. Finally spotted the well camo'd container and signed the log. TFTCartridge.

I originally completed this cartridge on July 14th, but failed to save the game....also, I completed it alone. Since MooseMaMa and I had ridden the W&OD 3 times together working on this Wherigo...I thought it fitting that she get the right to log it first. So we rode it again today and she successfully completed all zones and found the final cache. Done deal, most excellent experience, a VERY well constructed Wherigo that I'm sure you will enjoy. Thanks for all the time and effort it took to build it, test it, and place it - well done!!

My first Wherigo find. Did this with reedkickball and Bubba Q Jack. Thanks for a fun trek. Still a little saddle sore.

Absolute joy to ride the bike trail. Stops were spaced so you could take a break and enjoy the area. Well thought out tour.
