Location
This Saturday hash is at the side of a field north of Bremen, between Schwanewede and Osterholz-Scharmbeck.
Participants
Plans
It's about 30km by bike for me, and the weather is great, so should be doable. Will try to be there at 16:00. Oliver (talk)
Expedition
Left home a bit later than intended, but with great weather and little wind cycling was pretty easy. Went through Walle and Gröpelingen on a quite common cycling track, then switched to a route suggested by yournavigation.org which went through the northern outskirts of Bremen und finally into the wild (though there were suprisingly many benches set up along the ways - I have no idea who actually goes and uses them out there).
Reached the field at about 16:05 and discovered that full-length trousers would have been a good idea: lots of nettles and thistles were growing on the side of the field and were somewhat painful when wearing shorts only. Together with some barbed wire at the far end of the field, the hashdance became quite tedious; also, the trees probably worsened GPS reception, causing me to climb the barbed wire fence twice. Finally located the hashpoint with GPS and map in a pretty nice planting of trees.
To get back to the road I decided to go between the trees rather than encounter the nettles again, but that way turned out to have lots of brambles as well. But at long last I finally reached the bike again and cycled off, this time going along B6 route for a change. With the sun still burning hot I made a stop on the way to get some sweets and water, and so the way home took a bit longer; but in end I got back well and found it a very enjoyable tour.
