Geocache Description:

TUB stands for Taoyuan U-Bike series. These caches are located at or near UBike stations.


Some UBike stations could not host a cache because they are too close to existing caches or for other reasons. Therefore I call these stations "orphans."

This multi cache will take you to some of these orphans where you must collect information to calculate the final cache location. Please visit each of the stages to collect the following information (Stage 1 is the posted coordinates):

Stage 1

1. How many bicycle parking stations in total are there at this U-Bike station? The answer is A.
A = The total number of bicycle parking stations.

2. The UBike kiosk is located nearest to which bicycle parking spot? The number will be in this format: B--2.
B = The parking spot number nearest the kiosk.

3. On the side of the UBike kiosk is a sticker with numbers. You are looking for numbers in this format: B01W030C. C is a 3-digit number.
C = The number on the kiosk sticker.

Stage 2

1. How many bicycle parking stations in total are there at this U-Bike station? The answer is D.
D = The total number of bicycle parking stations.

Stage 3

1. How many bicycle parking stations in total are there at this U-Bike station? The answer is E.

2. The UBike kiosk is located between which two bicycle parking spots? The numbers are in this format: F--1 and G--2.
F, G = The bicycle parking spots on either side of the UBike kiosk.

H = The total number of bicycle parking stations.

2. The UBike kiosk is located nearest to which bicycle parking spot? The number will be in this format: I--1.

L, M = The parking spot numbers on either side of the library entrance.

Stage 6

N = The total number of bicycle parking stations.

2. The UBike kiosk is located nearest to which bicycle parking spot? The number will be in this format: O--2.
O = The parking spot number nearest the kiosk.

Final coordinates

N24 58.XXX
E121 18.YYY

XXX = A+B+C+D+E+F+G + 429
YYY = H+I+J+K+L+M+N+O + 171

The container is big enough for small TBs and swag. Please bring your own pen; the log sheet must be signed to qualify as a Find.
