Location

In a field near Bierley, Isle of Wight. We may not be able to enter the field, but the village bus stop could serve as an alternative location!

Participants

• Macronencer
• Sermoa
• David (first geohash!)

Plans

Macronencer plans to take the ferry from Southampton (obviously) but is not yet sure whether to cycle down to the hash or take a bus. Probably he will cycle, as he is still too fat and needs shrinking :|

Sermoa and David will take the train from Winchester to Southampton, the ferry from Southampton to West Cowes, the Number 1 Southern Vectis bus to Newport and change to the Number 6 bus towards Ventnor, getting off at Niton or Whitwell. We will walk the final short distance to Bierley. Although there is a bus stop very near the geohash, i don't think the number 6 goes to it.

Note to others: you can pre-book train and ferry together from thetrainline.com. It was £12.10 from winchester, with a network railcard, £18.30 without.
