Location

Low Lane, Horsforth, Leeds, UK

Participants

Monty

Plans

An early awakening meant Monty could get up to Leeds avoiding most of the morning rush-hour (though not necessarily the reverse).

Expedition

Up to Leeds, around the western reaches of the ringroad (following, for the most part, signs to Leeds-Bradford Airport), not a very challenging trip.

Found the spot easily, at the side of the road on a stretch designated "No stopping, except for buses" (which did not apparently apply to locals), and having forgotten again to bring the tripod, got the main photo of your truly at the geohash by balancing the camera on a wall at the opposite side of the road.

Coming back should have been easy, but decided to cut through the suburbs, and of course got hit by the local commuter traffic. Slightly shorter, but took longer.

Tracklog

No tracklog.

Photos

More photos (need better editing) when there's time to upload them.

Achievements

TBA, standard Land/No Batteries ones.
