Plans

I noticed a hashpoint in the middle of a street near Kraków, and I decided to collect Speeding Racer Achievement.

Expedition

I departed late in the evening to avoid traffic jams. The town is connected with Kraków by a dual-carriage road called "Zakopianka" that eventually leads to Tatra Mountains. The section behind the town has already been rebuilt into expressway standard and is quite comfortable, but "my" section is much worse. There's plenty of speed limit changes, single-level crossings, steep slopes and speeding drivers. I don't like driving there and I avoid it, if I can.

But anyway, after about 30 minutes of driving I reached Myślenice. The street was easy to find. I passed through the hashpoint once with the maximum legal speed limit 50 km/h, and then I turned back. I wanted to stop close to the hashpoint, but I accidentally missed it and passed through it for the second time. I turned back again... and missed it again because of the car coming from the opposite direction, and waiting until I pass by :). I turned back for the third time and finally I stopped where I wanted. I took the photo, collected the additional proof from Geohash Droid and drove back home.
