  • Felix Dance:

In another inner-west accessible hash victory, Lachie brought my attention to the convenient location of this hash and we decided to meet together to go and get it.

The sun was setting when I rode off along the Moonee Ponds Creek bike path. When I arrived at the hash I found it to be in a house under construction, with only an easily movable temporary fence closing it off. I waited in front of the house for Lachie to arrive.

When he got there, we drank a celebratory beer and entered the property. It didn't take long to reach a good hash-distance of less than a metre. We took photos and then headed off to Lachie's new house for a visit before I made my way home. One of the easiest hashes, particularly for Lachie who deviated very little from his intended route back from his party.

Here is the route of my trip.
