It appears that the DNR puts on a ride every year as well. The 2009 ride is
June 22-26th. It appears that they stretch the ride out over five days. The
cost for last year's ride was $250. I believe that this covered meals and
camping locations. By looking at the pictures, it appears that they also
hauled gear from point to point. I can't think of a better way to spend a few
days in the middle of the summer. This even usually has 300 riders. I wonder
how many we can convert to Geocaching?? This may be the way to go... still
plenty of time to pull off of the trail to grab some caches.

I have thought about this before and talked with others about it. But we
never got together to plan it. So I would be interested. The way we had
talked and thought about doing it was shuttling vehicles from stop to stop.
That way you would not have to be carrying all that gear with you on the
bike. You could also do some car caching.
