Smart Car 10 goes east

5...4...3...2...1...

After receiving a query regarding the monthly eliminations from The Great Travel Bug Knockout, it's been pointed out that I haven't made it clear whether the eliminated Travel Bug is the one that has travelled the least in total since the beginning of The Knockout, or the TB that has travelled the least since the previous elimination. It's the TB that has travelled the least distance since the start of The Knockout that is eliminated each month, not the one with the shortest distance for that month.

Now for news of a retrieval and a placement, as Canadian cacher moicy has picked up Hediya's Love and Peace (Maan) TB from the Vancouver cache that it was resting in and Smart Car 10 Knockout Racer has bucked the trend of The Great Travel Bug Knockout entries by, instead of heading west to North America, has raced off east to this cache on the outskirts of Göteborg in Southwestern Sweden. This move has added 584.29 miles to SC10KR's distance travelled, consolidating it's current 3rd position in The Knockout.

Smart Car 10 is found... in Sweden!

Swedish cacher Drejan has confirmed that he retrieved Smart451's Smart Car 10 Knockout Racer Travel Bug from the Edinburgh cache that it was resting in and has taken it back to Sweden with him:

Meanwhile, current leader of The Great Travel Bug Knockout, Jacaru's Knockout Ferrari, has been retrieved by Californian cacher Comstock. Oddly appropriate name for a cacher who discovered a gold Ferrari ;-)
