Jacaru's Knockout Ferrari Travel Bug has suffered a possible double K.O. this week, as firstly it lost it's long-held second place in The Great Travel Bug Knockout to Hediya's Love and Peace (Maan) TB, and then was reported missing by the most recent finder of the cache that it was logged into...!
Speaking of The Knockout's new second-postition holder; Canadian cacher DisneyGirl took LaP(Maan) to this cache in the Alaskan city of Skagway (population 862 - not overly populated for a city!) but the cache was too full to leave it, so just dipped the love-spreading traveller, adding 880.07 miles to it's distance travelled, sufficient to nose ahead of Knockout Ferrari into second place overall. DisneyGirl subsequently dipped LaP(Maan) into this cache too (no milage added due to The Knockout's now infamous first-dip-by-each-cacher-only-to-count rule!) and has retained possession of the Bug.
Other entries on the move include cooper troopers' the noble traveller TB, which has materialised in this cache at the peculiar EuroAirport, which has official joint French and Swiss nationality, and has free access from Germany too. This drop has added 11.73 miles to tnt's race distance, and marks the little TARDIS' second visit to France.
Cooper troopers' friendly local rivals, Smart451 have seen their own Smart Car 10 Knockout Racer Travel Bug log some distance too, firstly cacher pensionist dropped it into this cache in Uppsala, Sweden, adding 119.71 miles to it's official Knockout distance travelled. It was quickly retrieved by visiting Czech cacher satanmar who the very same day placed the little car into this cache 0.44 of a mile away.
Finally, wemnog's The Skylark TB (which has covered 648.81 miles, despite not yet leaving England) has been picked up by cachers theleverets, whom I believe are based in Surrey.
