Participants
Plans
The coordinates were in a public housing development in Woodbridge, making this a rather long (57 mile) and urban bicycle geohash. To do something for Memorial Day, I decided to stop at every cemetery along the route and say thanks to a random veteran at each.
Expedition
I set out with plenty of time to spare, but spent so long relaxing at the third cemetery that I barely made it to the area by 4:05. Although there was theoretically public access, I didn't want to be going too close to folks's homes, so I snapped a couple photos outside the complex and headed back, taking in two more cemeteries on an alternate route.
