Location
This Geohash is located next to the Via Fiume Azzurro in Torrino.
Participants
Plans
Setting off now on my bike. May be there in 45 minutes.
Expedition
Too good to be true. Another geohash within cycling distance, this time on the old road bike. The location is actually quite close to the end of one of my usual rides, but on the other side of a lethal road and the railroad tracks. In the end, I worked out a way to get there without obvious risk, along a big road that had a cycle path. There was a very steep climb near the end, from the top of which I took a photo of the sewage farm that I normally pass on the other side. Too exhilarated by making it up that climb, I overshot the mark on the way down, but managed to retrace my steps.
The geohash was on a patch of green among some trees, and I got as close as I could by repeatedly reloading geohashing.info, at the same time recognising that the phone location would never be 100% reliable.
Excellent expedition of about 24 km in glorious sunshine.
