I started hashing in February of 2024. At the time I was living in the 52, 5 graticule, specifically in the municipality of Utrecht. While I lived there, there was a single hash. Next to a highway where I probably could not have reached the hash. Then I moved to 51 5. And NOW there’s a easy hash in Utrecht. So obviously I had to grab it.

I left work early, grabbed an OV-fiets and biked to the hash. I’d seen in Google Maps that the hash was located in a Tesla dealership parking lot. I rode up to the dealership on my bike and by happy coincidence an employee just came outside. I asked if it was okay if I walked into the parking lot to grab the hash and he gave me permission. He even walked with me, almost all the way to the hash. I took my screenshot and selfie and left the parking lot.

Sadly, not much else to say about this hash. It’s hard to be creative about a city that you lived in for 10 years and about roads that you saw every day for almost 7 years out of the 10. It's a great city, but this hash was not in one of the scenic areas. Glad this hash was easy, and that I could get it this way.
