All 10 Mysteries plus 30 'Hall Hunt' checkpoints over 2000km gives me an average of 50km between stops.

That said, the longest distance between CPs is 130km (twice) and the least is 10km (several times).

I hadn't actually worked that out before you asked. Its 35.7

I think the date change has affected entries this year.

Hi all, is there anyone out there that could possibly provide some clues on mystery 9? I have all the others and would be happy to share them out if they are needed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Chris, I sent you a Visitor Message (replying to yours) a few days ago, but maybe it hasn't got through.

I've resent it by Private Message. Have a look in your Inbox.

Cheers,
Dave B

Had a great weekend riding.
Greymouth on Thursday night, Picton on Friday night, Otautau on Saturday night and Makikikhi on Sunday night. Home again on Monday.
3098 km with 2000 of them between midday Friday and midday Sunday.

I ended up dropping 2 of my planned checkpoints but picked up 6 others. Now going through my photos to make sure they all show what they should show, On Day 1 I tried Sir Taz's trick of having the T-shirt permanently attached to the bike, but the extra time spent trying to park the bike meant that on day 2 and 3 I went back to my old method of draping the T-shirt on the bike.

Likewise done and dusted.

Nine mysteries, 33 hunted halls (3 found by chance on the Saturday), and exactly 2000km (odo, that is, not real km).

Kaikoura Friday night, Otautau Saturday night, and back to Wanaka on Sunday arvo.

Rode through the night Friday, Winton Saturday night, home Sunday.
