VELOCIO This glorified treasure hunt will take palce on Thursday and will follow the format started by Stephen Dee 3 years ago. Within a 20km radius of the campsite will be 64 clues. Each of these have a question that is very specific, so I have asked for the number of letters or numbers in the answer to reduce 'appeals' As you go further out from the campsite the value increases. There is no set route so it is up to you to plot a route to find as many as you can. For families and also for those who want a more relaxed day, I have done a walking hunt around 3 local towns, where there are 27,19 and 16 clues to find. These are all fairly close together. If you are doing the 64 clues as well, these will also count. As the event can take up to 6.5 hours if you want to try to find as many as possible, there is a tea stop arranged, pre paid and yes there are a lot of points for attending the teastop and availing yourself of coffee/tea and a bun of some decription. Start and finish at the campsite at a time to suit (from 08:00 - 09:30) In the evening, I will have collected your answer papers and we'll meet in the marquee to redidstribute and mark them together. I have pictures of nearly all the clues which will add to the evening. There will be a prize for the team that gets the most points in each of the 3 towns and there is a stunning trophy for the winner, which we'll present on the night. Remember there is a bar open so it should make for a lovely day. Teams are your tandem pairs. To help you find the clues there are 2 ways. I have printed out all the clues on A4, please bring a pen. On each is a map reference. The other is a first. We have created an icon for each on rides that marks the exact spot and in there is the clue. That's the picture with this (to be continued as only one image will load)
