Blimey - that was quick! Are you including all the Mysteries?

No, there are only 2 of the mysteries on my planned route, but also 2 of the Location challenge checkpoints.

I've not even worked out one of the Mysteries yet (Mystery 1) let alone my route. Like to have those sorted before I start plotting stuff as it helps with the planning. Need to do some riding in the area where I think those cars are and see if I can spot them.

I reckon that you should look on a main road in the Greymouth area...

Thanks, that makes me even more certain I'm right about where they are. I know I've passed them before but I don't think it was on my normal 'just popping out for some milk' route - embarrassing if they are because that means I've ridden past them frequently and not noticed. I'll find out next weekend when I go for a little ride.

All signed up but no route planned yet. Found all mysteries and location challenges.

Love all the bonus opportunities. I wonder how many routes I'll come up with before decision time...

Its the only one I have left to find. The hint that it is around Greymouth has not helped me yet:no: Still early days. Two are already off my route but some margin.

Embarrassingly that one turned out to be the one I should have known where it was straight away. I've ridden past it numerous times on my 'popping out for milk' route, which involves Lewis and then Arthurs via Stillwater.

That's outstandingly efficient. Would you care to divulge your route? We gained 2750 points in 2052km.

I know you didnt ask for mine, but if efficiency is your thing - 5000 points, 2000 kms, 86 checkpoints

Thanks for that; I'm thoroughly impressed! That's a lot of checkpoints (a lot of stops) so your time at the halt must have been very brief. And I'm guessing relatively early starts on Saturday and Sunday mornings. It'll be interesting to see what format might be in play next year.
