Dailymile challenge

Dailymile.com is trying a unique approach to making exercising fun. This week they ran a challenge: Can you find $1.00 in change on a single ride/run?

The idea for this weeks challenge comes from the following article:

So Tim and I took the challenge. Can you tell I'm trying to take this picture of us? We tried to think of spots were we might find some spare change on the ground......
Our first stop was at the playground. Kids drops money all the time..... No luck, but we did find some other objects.



Our next spot was to the high school. I rode up and down the parking lot.
My first quarter.

a dime.


Tim didn't find any money in this location but he did find this cool spy toy.

We decided to start riding along North Ave. We found this Bucky sticker on the side of the road.

Finally Tim was lucky. We were riding past a bus stop and Tim discovered 11 cents!! After riding 12 miles our total money find was 46 cents. We have one week so we'll have to do some more hunting.
