Expedition

I left home at 13:15 and had a nice ride in an early spring day. It has been very cold in Germany last week so the air felt pretty warm today. The track wasn't that nice, I had to ride through Ludwigshafen and Mannheim, what is mostly industrial area. And even after I've left Mannheim I had to follow the train track or a busy road. But in the end I left the road and followed an unpaved path. where I reached the hash field. I had to walk 150 m into the field, but that was doable without any problems. I could see the church of Biblis (where I wanted to enter the train) already, and 15 minutes after I reached the hash, I reached Biblis. I knew that I have more than half an hour left until my train came, and so I rode around to find a location to celebrate my success, but there was no cafe or ice vendor in Biblis. So I drove to the station, just in time to reach the train before mine, and entered it. During the ride I found out, that my original train would have been late, and I wouldn't have catchen the train to Speyer, if I had missed the earlier one. But so, I reached home at 17:15 again.
