Expedition

The hashlocation was quite near the Goloring which had me intrigued for quite a while now so I simply had to go hashing. I decided to go by bike and was also initially trying to go for a tron route. While traveling, it was not only cold, wet and dark but also small almost invisible hailstones harshly poked my face for quite a long way. And of course I was going against the wind and uphill. So it was not too surprising that I eventually took a wrong turn and ended up in a dead end and had to trace my way back.

In the end, I arrived relatively quickly at the hash, took proof screenshots, actually forgot the StupidGrinTM picture and started to head back. Since tron was no longer possible, I took the opportunity and climbed the nearby hill to get a good view and visit the St. Mary chapel on it. To my surprise, it was not only unlocked, but also had some nice burning candles inside.

On the way back I took a different route downhill over very slippery and muddy paths constantly wondering where I am since the GPS told me several times to turn where no road or paths were. I even got very close to the Goloring without even realizing it. I might visit it directly some other time though.

Obviously I didn't have to pedal as much downhill (sometimes not at all) which meant it got even colder and as I arrived home I was quite freezing despite having planned for the weather and wearing appropriate clothes. So I took a looong hot shower and called it a day.
