Geocache Description:

A bicycle theme cache along a bicycle / multi-use trail.

Bicycle Riders

Primes (pronounced "preems") are prizes awarded for the winners of sprints during predetermined or spontaneously designated laps of a multi-lap bicycle race. Primes create races within the race and add excitement and momentum to the event.

Collect your prime on this easy flat paved multi-use creekside trail. Trail can be accessed from several locations. Bike, kid, and dog friendly.

Have fun!
