Pimp my Pump: Chess Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

ArizonaSmith: Sadly, it is time to archive this cache. The original hiding place (which was already far from the pump itself) is not available any more, and the area is full of private houses with fences, which makes the hiding quite difficult. Besides, I want to publish two more caches in the area, which wouldn't be possible without archiving this one. So long! (ah, a tear in my eye... )

Geocache Description:



For the story behind Pimp my Pump crew, all references, info, water pumps, and projects check Pimp my Pump: The Headquarters geocache, all the PmP news and a complete list of all pimped pumps will be there, up to date. Also, paint on the pumps, and especially on the floor, unfortunately deteriorates with time, so the pumps can be rather different looking than their pictures in the listing...

EN: Pump we’re seeing here is just across the Faculty of Electrical Engineering. Although I personally tore my shoes for years coming to and from this building, I’ve never noticed this pump before. I did take a different route, OK, but nevertheless… So, I was glad when I found out that my old university has a new “attraction”.
This pump has apparently been pimped not once, but twice! First, it was painted as a silver skyline over the city, but for unknown reason, they covered it with chess pattern. Quite impressive, as the paint covers part of the sidewalk, too.

HR: Pumpa koju vidimo ovdje je preko puta FER-a (Fakulteta Elektronike i Računarstva). Iako sam derao cipele dolazeći ovdje godinama, nikad nisam zapazio ovu pumpu. Doduše, dolazio sam drugim putem, ali ipak... U svakom slučaju, baš mi je bilo drago kad sam saznao da moj bivši faks ima novu „atrakciju“.
Ova pumpa je izgleda bila spimpana je jednom, nego čak dvaput. Prvi put je ofarbana u srebrnu boju neba iznad siluete grada, da bi kasnije iz meni nepoznatog razloga bila prekrivena šahovskim uzorkom. Impresivno, jer boja pokriva i dio pločnika.

Za priču o Pimp my Pump ekipi, reference, informacije, ofarbane gradske pumpe, i ostale projekte provjerite Pimp my Pump: The Headquarters geocache, sve PmP vijesti te kompletna recentna lista spimpanih pumpi će biti tamo. Isto tako, boje na pumpama, a pogotovo na podu, nažalost blijede s vremenom, pa pumpe mogu izgledati dosta drugačije nego njihove slike u listingu...
