The geohash is on a field next to the "Sonderflughafen Oberpfaffenhofen" (a small airport).

Who Went

The Expedition

Darn, the geohash was so close to my office it would nearly qualify to go for the Cubicle geohash achievement. Too bad it was approx. 2.3km away...but still an Easy Geohash.

Every now and then I go to work by bike, 27km one-way afterall. Yeah I know, big deal, but I'm not really used to go more than 50km by bike on a working day.

Ok, back to the story: After I saw that the geohash is really close to my office, I left the office to pass the geohash on my way back home. Next to the geohash, there is the "Sonderflughafen Oberpfaffenhofen", a small airport. There, airplanes start and land, and the facility is used for aeronautical tests. Unfortunately, I hadn't had my camera ready when some planes were starting, so no photographs. I parked my bike on a dirt road and walked the final 200m over harvested fields.

I took the usual photos, amongst others a nice panoramic view and walked back to my bike and started my way home.

This was a really nice trip, although I made a detour of about 10km. Of course, you have to award yourself for such a trip: with approx. 8km to go there is a small lido with a snack bar. There, I had a small rest with and drank a "Radler". You may translate it into "biker", as it is a drink created for bikers: half beer, half lemonade (mostly Sprite-like).
