Motocaching - anyone interested?

[Trials Rider]

Hi Guys

I think the important thing is supporting a local man that is a member of this forum by the name of Josh (RMOTO) who a lot of you have had dealings with, he has provided us with a fantastic website resource for over six years. This is www.remotemoto.com . It has grown tenfold over the last year and continues to provide us “NZ adventure riders” with a brilliant resource to plan our trips.

Josh is a genuine good bugger and a passionate adventure rider, With 105 Mototokens and 523 routes he has a lot of support from the adventure riding community already and with our continuing support it will only get better for us. I would personally rather support Remotemoto ahead of an overseas motocaching website with no NZ routes built by someone we don't even know.

Through our business Motomox a common question is “where are the good rides”, my standard answer is go to Remotemoto and fill your boots because I know the info is exactly what they are looking for which is awesome.

No disrespect intended for our overseas friends, just putting it out there to support the people that support our recreation.

Well... then don't use motocaching.net but support your man instead. Motocaching is just a tool for sharing rides in any country. It's not a business or support issue so anyone is free to use it or not.

One thing when you register:

Sometimes registrations fail because the confirmation message from motocaching ends up in spam folder instead of inbox (or there was a typo in the email address).

For such cases there's a 'Registration support' link on the login page. Just click the link and follow the instructions and we can sort it out.

Competition is healthy I think motocaching.net is more generic so will appeal to road riders as well rather than just hardcore adventure, and it's not like there is just one NZ site anyway, they all do a grand job. Use what ever resourse gets you out there riding.

Completely agree with you including the part that there are really good NZ sites. One thing though... it's motocaching.net It's always good to have options to choose from. That's how things evolve.

It's also perfectly fine and understandable that people speak for the option that they like. For example tell all about why they like their Kawasaki bikes but personally I find it a bit odd if it's posted in a Yamaha thread - then it kind of sounds like a competition instead of just options to choose from.

Btw, there are now 16 motocaches in New Zealand (and over 1,100 worldwide).

Btw, there are now 639 New Zealand routes and Mototokens on RemoteMoto

Good for you, and now everybody knows it... and I'm still not planning to look for remotemoto threads to post my advertisements.

But http://www.motocaching.net is there for those who want an option to use the growing set of tools and features that it offers...
