About

I don't exactly know how I learned about geohashing. I'm an avid reader of the XKCD webcomics, so I probably learned about geohashing there. Anyway, I try to use geohashing as an excuse to get out more. I do own a driver's licence by now, but I don't own a car. So I still have to wait for hashes that are reachable by bike or by foot. Also, I moved from Hamburg to Buchholz, so now I'm a resident of the Hamburg, West graticule.
Also I try to drag along my wife to the hashes (she likes the idea of geohashing as well), but since her work schedule keeps her occupied I have to go alone most of the time. :(

Distance I cycled just because of geohashing: 103,2 km.
- Longest expedition: 2011-08-02 53 10: 59,4 km.

- 100 km cycled in total on 2011-08-02.

Consolation Prizes

Bierhefe earned the I walked all this way and all I got was this lousy consolation ribbon?

-Actually, we are two persons: me and my gf. We are waiting for some nearby hashes. We both don't want to waste any fuel to reach the hashes, so we are waiting for those that can be reached by foot/bike/HVV.

-Yes, I forgot to take a picture of my bike, but once I upload the track it should be proof enough, because I went a lot faster than I could've done by foot alone (also, I'm not crazy enought to walk the whole way) but a lot slower than I could've if I went there by bus. The tracklog is available [http://waka.bplaced.net/geohash/2010-11-24_53_10.gpx here]. Oh btw, on the way back, I took the bus for a small part of the way.
