Expedition
After doing the last expedition 2021-11-20_40_-3 with a car, I was now back to normal mode, riding on a motorcycle to the geohash. Similarly to the last one, however, I made use of some synergy and did the shopping along the way.
The geohash was an easy one, just a ride of a bit more than half an hour and then only a 100 meters walk. There was also enough space to park the Goldwing directly by the side of the road, although I think this was not really allowed. Anyway, I got away with it.
While the geohash was in principle easy, it was November, and that's the wettest month here in central Spain. The weather was very changeable and quite uncomfortable. If it wasn't for the geohash, I would not have gone for a motorcycle ride. Nevertheless, I reached the geohash without much trouble, just getting a few drops of rain.
Before riding back, I visited a small airfield located close to the geohash and I had planned to take a couple of photos. But just when I took out the SLR camera, it started to rain seriously. So I put it back in the photo case and jumped on the bike. On the ride home, I had it all, gusty wind, rain, and even hail. I was glad when I was back in the shelter of the house.

Diversion with stopover in Brunete for some shopping. Until they put the tractor on the roundabout in the background some months ago…
… I didn't know that Lanz had a Spanish branch.
The Goldwing parked by the side of the road, possibly not completely legal, but should do. The geohash is 100 meters in viewing direction.
This country is so astonishing beautiful, but if you look closely in any ditch, sadly, it's a bunch of rubbish.
After climbing the slope, it's an easy short walk.
Here I am again on my own.
Looking towards the way back. The mobile still marks the geohash.
Looking down from the slope. The bike was not towed.
Close by is a small airfield which I pay a short visit. Note the rainbow in the background and the raindrops on the lens.
