Plans: Reinhard

Tomorrow's coordinates are just too nice! It's only a 6 km bike ride from my home and some field walking, which should be possible due to snow and temperatures below/around 0°C. Unfortunately, I won't have time tomorrow, so I thought, I could also make this a midnight geohash.

Things will go like this: I'll start shortly after 23:30 from Cospeda with my simple trekking bike (My road bike is already at home in Erfurt, because I thought, I wouldn't need it again before christmas.) I'll cycle through Isserstedt and further towards Großschwabhausen - a road I've been riding on more than 100 times. I'll take the field path to my right at some point and probably push the bike 250 m through the snow. Then I'll leave the bike and run the last 140 m into the field. I'll quickly take one or two pictures when it gets midnight and will run, push and cycle back home and claim this geohash reached below.

Expedition: Reinhard

As predicted above. Bonus: Built Mr Snowman while waiting for midnight.
