This hashpoint was way too far south for Reinhard to just cycle there and back in the evening from Jena, but Reinhard liked the location near the Frankenwald-Hochstraße ("Franken forest high street" - a scenic street along the mountain ridge of the Frankenwald) and wanted to get to know that area a little better and naturally had to GPS track a lot of new roads for the quaeldich.de bike trip planner. So, Reinhard went most of the way by car and parked in Bad Lobenstein, from where he started his very hilly bike trip. Landscape was beautiful and the roads were always going up and down (more than Reinhard thought, when he planned the tour at home). When he saw the castle "Burg Lauenstein", he even had to take this climb, though it wasn't part of his plan. After arriving at the Frankenwald-Hochstraße, it wasn't far to the point, where he had to leave it and continue on the forest path for about 300 m. There he got off his bike, took a photo of the bright moon, the dark forest (it was getting dark now) and the lonely geohasher and walked the last 50 m through smaller plants into the wood. Coordinates reached!
It was getting colder then and Reinhard was getting hungrier, because he had nothing else to eat than a small cereal bar, but there were only 35 km and probably several ascents left.

Kriko and Dracho wished good luck to me, but prefered to stay in the car.
Visiting Burg Lauenstein.
On the forest path close to the hashpoint with the Frankenwald-Hochstraße (not visible) in the back.
Coordinates reached.
That's how the Frankenwald looks in the evening.
Damn blue cable for the road works made me falling. I must have had a guardian angel, that I didn't hit the brick. Bike still exactly at the place where I dramatically got off it.
One wound for playing squash, one for dumb cycling and the shiny red one for geohashing at night ...
That looks like the perfect rollercoaster track.
