      The circumference of the earth at the equator is 24,901.55 miles.

      I am having fun watching a geocoin that I own as it is now getting very close to “going all the way around the world.”

      See http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?tracker=TB1M7HP

      which is the link for Zuma’s Cruiserdude Geocoin. As of today it has traveled 24,769.2miles. Perhaps with the next move it will go over, or perhaps it will disappear, but either way it is kind of interesting.

          Way too cool 😀 That means there’s hope for my coins and TBs yet ❗

            Way Cool! three trips across the big pond, across to Japan and many other stops in between.

              That’s awesome, and nearly 4 times as far as any of our trackables made it before being “lost”.

                My Allicat TB has traveled across the pond a few times as well and has actually made it’s way back to me by sheer luck…it now resides in my drawer.

                She traveled 30459 miles.

                For coins to hit that kind of mileage is pretty awesome as the coins I put out have been ‘lost’.

                    Looks like it may be headed to Denmark next. That should put it over.

                      That’s cool. I love looking at the maps of the trackables to see where they have traveled. Congratulations.

                        Just an update on one of my geocoins. The CruiserDude did just get moved to Denmark, so now has gone 25034.9miles, a distance greater than the earth’s circumference. See the link for details:

                          That’s so cool. We just picked up a travel bug this weekend that has been traveling since 2004. These stories are great to hear.
