Introduction

Being a bit bored at work I found myself clicking 'random' on xkcd reliving memories of previous comics. Somehow I ended up on the blag reading the 2012 geohashing post and discoverd that actual people were actually doing this. It seemed like a fun way of discovering new places and to give me goals while learning to ride my motorcycle.

Wait. Actually my first train of thought was: Hey this is something nice to do with Gil. We can turn this into a camping weekend. We could go by motorcycle. Hmm, all Belgian graticules seem to contain some neighbouring country. Better get my licence first then. Bummer. I could do the close ones by bicycle though. Or... I can use some Belgian geohashes to train for my licence.

So that's what I'm going to do.

I live in 51,4 but I'm quite as likely to be found in one of the surrounding Belgian graticules (I can ride anywhere as long as I stay on Belgian soil, and for the moment I'm still a bit weary of highways).

FYI I drive a black Honda CBR 750 (Dutch blog).

Plans

This weekend I will try and reach 2013-08-25 51 5. When does mostly depend on the weather en whether I get my motorcycle to start. (Motorcycle wouldn't start. Will explain later.)

Going for 2013-08-28 51 4 by motorcycle (jumpstarted it on Monday) and cruise by my parents afterwards.
