On a harvested salad field in Meerbusch.

NB

Expedition

On a beautiful late summer day and after fixing pah 's bicycle, NB and pah went for their first bicycle geohash. After a trip of 16 km mostly along the river Rhine, they arrived near the hashpoint on a harvested and ploughed salad field near Meerbusch.

After reaching the hashpoint, they built a mark and took some pictures and the necessary proof. On a nearby hunting hide, they then had a small picnic (chips and beer), unfortunately lacking the required accessories to claim a Picnic achievement. On their way home, they crossed the river Rhine by ferry and enjoyed the sunset in a nice beer garden in Kaiserswerth. All in all, the geohash expedition was a nice 30 km cycling through the beautiful countryside along the river.
