Leg-ability 1 (Search Trial): Previously known as
the Longfield Triangle.
A contest to test your searching capabilities. Find 16 code boards,
which guide you to 8 more, then another 4, a pair, and a final board
which points you to a treasure cache. A two-hour romp through the
woods and field of Longfield.

Lunch.
A sumptuous buffet while you swap tales about your treasure
hunt.
-
14:30 to 15:30
Leg-ability 2 (Time Trial): After lunch choose from
two local walks of around 1.5 - 2.5 miles and deposit any
timepiece you have (including GPSr's) before you start. Predict
exactly how long the walk will take you; there are penalties for
getting back too early or too late. You'll have to record code
boards on route to prove you completed
the walk.
As added value for any geocachers that come there will be two new
caches to find. (Rally Round 64 aka
Leg-ability 3 and Rally Round 65 aka
Leg-ability 4)
