4)Virtual drops will not be counted - TBs must be dropped & collected by different Cachers (if moved on by the same Cacher only the first jump will be counted)

- The TB was Dipped (virtual drop) and is still in the hand of the cacher
- as you said it was their first drop, but as that was a dip, does it count?

Thus returning to my original question on whether all those miles should be counted or not    (We must remember no other dips have been counted and added to other bikes totals,  so, again, don't know why TB run has added it to Mel's - it's set not to count them!  )

In other news I think we should say once a bike goes missing it can't re-enter into the race until next year - poor me!  does everyone else agree?

Edit: TB run adds mileage from the first dropped or visited ONLY of each cacher. But does that agree with our published rules?
