CW 2016 TB race ideas
By: Griff Grof Date: December 19, 2015, 11:32 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Just wondering - shall we do the SuperBike challenge
HTML http://www.tb-run.com/show-race-CWSBC2015.html,
or perhaps
something new?
Personally, I think it would be nice to run something a little
different, maybe like we did in 2014 with the Footballers
challenge coinciding with the World Cup.
Obviously we've got the Olympics next year, but what could the
items be?
Or we could try finding a bunch of figures for something like
smurfs or other well-known characters?
Thoughts?

Would it be possible to keep a tally of the favourite points of
the caches each TB visits. The winner will be the one who
amasses the most FP's.
Highest cache visited?
Find someone going abroad and have a race home?

Some good ideas TJ. I like the fave point one, although there's
no way to measure this on tb-run.com
HTML http://tb-run.com
- we'd have to ourselves, which would be more
of a job.
I like the race home idea - we'd need to find someone though.
One thing tb-run does offer is racing to a cache, which could be
fun - we could pick a so-called TB hotel in a really obscure
location.
Or, perhaps we could simply have a race around all the
continents, including to Antarctica - an 'Expedition to
Antarctica' - this would go with the fact that the Olympics are
very international :D - and, before you ask, there are caches
on Antarctica! ;) (

HTML http://coord.inf
o/GC4TM62 - even signyred, who I believe
attended CW events in the past, has found it!)
However, we do want it to be do-able. ::)
Any more thoughts?

Although we are new to this, I think Antarctica could be a touch
difficult to achieve!
We shall be going to Canada and attending a Mega in August, but
I suppose that would be too late in the year to place the TB's
would it?

Well, there have been quite a lot of TBs in GC4TM62 over the
years so it wouldn't be impossible, certainly different and a
bit out of the box :D
I think August is a little too late, which is a shame :(
As I suggested in my first post, we could just have a normal
race with different items (not SuperBikes) attatched to the TBs,
but we need to settle on an idea for the theme.

The race idea is good from another far far away cache but can be
over very quickly and for some (me) still going on, 2 years
later :o
For a theme, I like the idea of Olympics.
Or if we want it local, a Cotswold item theme.

Olympics is the obvious one; now, which items? Ideally we need
to buy a load of them for a cheap price.
Maybe each of us could be a country with different country
key-rings rather than different sporting items?

We're running out of time with this. No luck finding any items
on my side. How about everyone else?
I think it would be fun to do something different but, if not,
we can go for SuperBikes again, does anyone have any and if not
where could I find them?
Clearly this year's race will begin a few days late. Let's say
Monday 4th as it's the start of the week and people can place
their TBs ASAP?

Sly2 who has taken part in this year's race wrote to say thanks
for organising 2015's race and said she has loads of these for
2016 if we are interested:

They should do the trick.
