Location

Dense bushes near Borek village (between Bochnia and Brzesko), 200 m from A4 motorway

Participants

Zyxist (talk)

Plans

I wanted a sunrise achievement. If I wake up early enough, I go.

Expedition

OK, I woke up early, but it's so cold and so dark. I don't want, but finally I decide to go, however this hesitation cost me a couple of precious minutes, and I departed slightly later than expected, at 6:10 AM. The motorway was the fastest way to get there, but I did not expect so many hashers computing to their destinations so early on the road. This was one of the very few moments when I blessed the speed limit of 140 km/h on Polish motorways, and I cursed hashers who did not want to stick to some reasonable average traffic speed ("dude, do you REALLY have to compute at 100 km/h on a LEFT lane?!"). I was worried that I won't make it. Leaving the motorway, then crossing some roads in the village nearby and finally I turned to the service road next to A4. It's 6:50 AM, the sun is about to rise. Where's my GPS, need to change shoes... dude, those bushes are so dense, but OK. I get into them... so wet! I start running, I don't care about the mother nature, I scared some deer, and yes! Here it is. Quick look at the sky... ok, I think I made it.
