Expedition
Mahahahaneapneap (Ali) and Blue Rise (Mike) met at Mike's house, and cycled to Poole train station, via Asda for lunch. We got the train to Wareham where we met Owen and cycled in the direction of the geohash, going down Puddletown Road, a really great straight quiet road that meant a slight detour but avoiding the main road. Cycling through Wool, stopping 4 times on the way through to argue on the correct route, we headed up through Burton, towards the hashpoint enjoying the English countryside. When we arrived at the point of road nearest our hash, we parked our bikes, and proceeded on foot... in the wrong direction!....
