Expeditions

Expedition 1 (Felix)

I got up early and immediately checked for hashes. Another stonker! Or maybe it was the gchat messages that alerted me to this one. Yes, that actually.

After getting ready and saying goodbye to the fam, I jumped on my bike (I'd tried to leave early but no luck there) and headed hashwise. After a few minutes I'd breezily crossed from West Brunswick into Brunswick and was nearing the hash. My hands were freezing cold given the temperature of the particles around them.

The hash turned out to be only a few metres away from my brother's old house through the block. It was inside a parked car on the side of a residential street, under a tree. I stuck my arm over the roof of the car until I got to less than a metre and took a screen shot. The point could well have been on the side of the car given the GPS precision, so I've decided to give myself a success despite not having climbed onto the roof of the car, or underneath it. I'd got the GPS to within 150mm but I now realise that's not the screenshot that was taken, so I have to settle for just under 1m.

Hash and photos taken, I mounted my bike once more and rode to work, my hands freezing even more as I accelerated downhill towards the city.
