For the first of my caches I have decided to do an Olympics/Sailing based quiz to get you started:

When were the first international Olympic Games of the Modern era held? = ABCD
When was the 28th Olympiad? = EFGH
How many times have the Olympic Games been successfully held in London? (exclude 2012) = J
How many times have the Summer Olympic Games been successfully held in the USA? = K
When were the last Olympic medals awarded that were made entirely of gold? = 19LM
When were the first Winter Olympic Games held? = 19NP
How many Summer and Winter Olympics have been cancelled due to World Wars I and II?  = Q
In which Olympiad were women first allowed to take part? = R
How many Olympic Sports are to be contested at the London 2012 Olympics? = ST
During which Olympiad did the sport's name change from yachting to sailing? = UV
When did the most successful Olympic sailor win his first gold medal? (please note cache was set prior to London 2012, so do not include Ben Ainslie's latest gold medal success or you will have the "wrong" answer.) = WXYZSearch

Then fit your answers into the following equation:


N50º ((X+B+M)xJ) . ((C+Z)x(H+P))
W002º ((R+N)xT) . ((A+Y+S+L+E+W+U+K)x(KxQ)+(V+D))
