The 2017 Dartmoor National Park Geocoin Race

After reading lots of negative comments regarding trackables Dartmoor Dave commisioned the 2014 geocoins and organised a race involving them in order to give a bit of competive fun and hopefully a more positive outlook on trackables in general.

This is the fourth race that Dartmoor Dave has organised, each time having a limited edition coin minted. The rules of the race are simple:

  • Only the number of miles travelled count for the race.
  • Please do not give coins to friends to take somewhere.  All coins must be released into a cache to be picked up by anybody, not somebody known to you.
  • Only original Dartmoor 2017 coins can be used – no nasty proxies please!
  • Coins must start the race with zero mileage.

The race starts on Saturday 11th February 2017 and will finish on Thursday 30th November 2017

Please do not keep hold of this coin. Please deposit it in a cache to keep it moving as soon as you possibly can

Picked this up and have brought it back to Bristol with us. Will find a nice busy cache locally and move on. This was our first geocoin find and it's beautiful! Wishing it all the best in its race!

Retrieved both the coin and its plastic wallet that had become separated - the wallet sleeve where the coin goes is open both ends so the coin can drop through - I'll see if I can fix it before moving the coin on.
