Location

very near to the area of the golf club "Schönbuch"

Participants

Klaus

Plans

Klaus will try his second geohash by cycling from Tübingen. I'll try to start after work around 16:15 and should be there around 17:15-17:30.

This geohash seems to be a perfect candidate for the golf achievement, but unfortunately I don't possess any golf equipment :(

Expedition

I started at around 16:00, although it seemed like a thunderstorm was upcoming soon. Because of the dark clouds I drove the bicycle like crazy all the way through the nature reserve "Schönbuch" up the hill to the geohash.

The last kilometer there were golf courses right and left of my road and there were quite a lot people playing. Maybe I should have asked one if I could borrow some golf equipment so I would get the golf achievement? Not sure what the answer would have been :)

When I arrived at the geohash around 17:00 and it started to trickle. Luckily, it stopped soon and it didn't start to rain. Because the way home was going downhill and I was driving fast, I missed one section and made a little detour.

All in all I drove around 36km with my bicycle.
