Location

On a corn field near Ludwigshafen-Oggersheim.

Participants

Plans

Go there by bike. Trying a tron.

Expedition

It was raining all morning long and so I wasn't sure if I should go for a drowned rat or stay at home. But at 1 pm the rain stopped, and at 13:30 I sat on my bike. At the beginning everything went as planned, but a kilometer before I reached the hash I had to ride along an asphalted road that was covered by a thin layer of soft mud and it covered my bike and me all over. So after a while I had to stop and trying to clean the bike a little bit. When I came near the hashpoint it was on a harvested cornfield and was quite easy to reach. Of course my shoes get also muddy but it was a totally different kind of mud. The one at the bike was very soft and almost fluid. So you could hardly remove it with a stick as it was too soft. The mud at the shoes again was very hard and it was difficult to remove it with the stick, as I hardly could get into it.

You see there isn't much to tell about the hash. On my way back I found a really nice cafe and had some cake. After three hours and almost 50 KM I reached home again.

Tracklog

47 KM by bike
