Expedition

A quick morning jaunt. I had a serious dose of FOMO in missing yesterday's Melbourne hash that almost every other Australian geohasher had reached - so I was keen to have a go of whatever turned up. Fortunately, the algorithm shined favourably upon me, and it took only a few minutes to satisfy myself that it was reachable and ridable.

I headed out first thing, still in that not-quite-daylight you get on summer mornings, wending through Newborough for variety before heading out north on the Moe-Walhalla Road. I had scoped a few alternate routes; there were ways to avoid most of the bitumen, but I didn't plan to spend all day out today - the main road won out on time considerations.

I eventually turned off onto a smaller farm road, and then a dirt track, which became more of a sandy track in parts - the cause of a few rapid dismounts as my wheels spun out under me.

Into the forest, and off onto a well-overgrown side track, waving a stick in front of me as I rode to avoid being coated in spiderwebs, then a 30 metre bush-bash to the hash.

Back the way I came - resisting temptation to take any adventurous but lengthy detours.
