::Starting point for me is Frankfurt main station. I can probably leave there around 14:00 (maybe a bit earlier) and have to catch the train at 20:18 to Stuttgart (via Darmstadt). My (kind of special) ticket allows me to get off and on at any place between Frankfurt and Darmstadt, but not anywhere else. I'm still following my "no cars for the way to the hash" policy, and to break that would need a very good reason which I can't see in these hashes ;) A group daypass for 31 EUR would cover it all if we meet at Frankfurt, though. --[[User:Ekorren|Ekorren]] 11:11, 25 February 2011 (EST)

Upcoming Locations and Expedition Planning

Saturday 2011-02-26

Ekorren will be at Frankfurt on 2011-02-26, which is a saturday, and might have the afternoon free.If a hash is reasonably close to Frankfurt, he might go and visit it. Both the Frankfurt and the Fulda hash look reachable, and would probably be possible to do within of my available time window. However, the ticket price is a bit on the ripoff side, but there would be a group ticket for five people for mot much more. Is anyone interested in a group expedition / true meetup? If so, please contact me as soon as possible. Otherwise I'll probably not go hashing. --Ekorren 10:01, 25 February 2011 (EST)

Was going for a new graticule this saturday but happy to change plans. Can provide car if that helps. Where is your starting location exactly (no coordinates please ;)? Me se Niedernhausen. - Mampfred 10:42, 25 February 2011 (EST)
Which graticule were you aiming at?
Starting point for me is Frankfurt main station. I can probably leave there around 14:00 (maybe a bit earlier) and have to catch the train at 20:18 to Stuttgart (via Darmstadt). My (kind of special) ticket allows me to get off and on at any place between Frankfurt and Darmstadt, but not anywhere else. I'm still following my "no cars for the way to the hash" policy, and to break that would need a very good reason which I can't see in these hashes ;) A group daypass for 31 EUR would cover it all if we meet at Frankfurt, though. --Ekorren 11:11, 25 February 2011 (EST)
To go there for the official meetup time at 16:00, I would have to catch the train at 13:52 from FFM for Lahnau-Dorlar (Frankfurt graticule) or 13:26 for Bimbach (Fulda graticule). Both would be new graticules for me. Lampertheim-Hüttenfeld (Mannheim graticule) doesn't look interesting to me, since I have already visited a number of hashes in that graticule. However, there's also another idea what to do with the afternoon, which does not involve hashing, so I won't be bored if I simply drop it. --Ekorren 11:11, 25 February 2011 (EST)
