Location

On a grassy nature strip in Caulfield North.

Participants

Felix Dance

Expedition

This was a basic one. I checked the hashes after work at 5pm and realised it was doable. Actually, I was only checking to write-up the previous day's hash and lucky I did!

So I quickly jumped on my road bike, road down Moonee Ponds Creek, the Docklands, Pick Street and the bayside Esplanade, then up Fitzroy street and east to... well you can just look at the Strava route below.

I got to the hash, got the GPS to within 256mm (pretty goood!) and headed home. I wanted to do a Tron achievement but accidentally rode up a one-way street and messed it up.

The way back was a breeze riding along the Yarra and through the city. I stopped on the way home in North Melbourne for a kebab for dinner.

I wonder if I'll get a third consecutive day!
