This user earned the Thumbs Up Geohash Honorable Mention

by hitchhiking during some part of their journey to the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]], and withstanding the Vogon poetry of the driver.

This achievement is awarded to a geohasher who does most or all of the travelling to the hashpoint by hitchhiking. It is distinguished from a Drag-Along Geohash by the fact that the hitchee is not originally aware of the geohashing attempt. If the hitchee decides to join you to the hashpoint, then it becomes a drag-along. If you ask a friend to drop you off at/near the hashpoint, it doesn't count as hitch-hiking so much as "bumming a ride" :-).

Special Notes

Hitchhiking may be illegal in your area. Be aware of local laws before attempting to hitchhike.
