No plan. I saw the coordinates just early in the afternoon and immediately started.

With my bike I cycled about 10 km to the field with the hash. While approaching (14:50), I was afraid, whether the field with high corn would stretch up to the coordinates.
Luckily 300 m in front of the hash, the corn ended and the next field was just cut grass.
Unluckily a landman with a tractor was working on the field. I decided, to extend my bike trip - in the hope, that later the man would have left.
One Hour later (16:00) I came back and all was fine. I went the 60 m onto the field. I found the hash spot, placed a little bulb of hay and some mud onto it and took photos. Cycling home, the clouds got bigger and darker, but there was no rain.

Damn, another close miss it seems! Around 5 pm, I took a break from putting the finishing touches on my Master's thesis, which I had to hand in that very day, and cycled 9 km to the hash in very warm weather. It was to be my first home success in six weeks, and I apparently I was already out of practice – I sang too much while cycling, getting me out of breath, took a wrong turn despite knowing the area well, overshot the hash by failing to notice I'd already crossed the street preceding it, and even crashed pretty badly due to some sneaky raptors digging a secret pothole right in a bend. You forgo rule 1 one time, and then this! And of course right in front of an elderly couple too. Those young daredevils!
The hash was located on a grassy field, and just as I wanted to leave, it started to rain. It was fine at first, and I decided to take a detour through the Henstedter Moor, which turned out to be extremely muddy. Only a minute or two before I arrived home, the skies broke and rain started to pour in buckets, so hard in fact that I had to protect by phone with my body, and my entire attire including my shoes and underwear got completely drenched. Fortunately, I remained in high spirits. Random things like the weather can't get me down!
