Plans

Since this hashpoint seemed easily accessible, both from the east from Rüppurr and from the north from Weiherfeld, I decided to try a tron geohash. I started planning two independent routes there and back on the city map and left my house at 15:00.

Report

Tron achievement was won, hashpoint was reached at 16:00, more to follow.

Here's the Tracklog (.gpx, .kmz, in Google Maps) of the complete expedition. The tracklog is off the road a couple of times, especially on the way home, when I rode between larger inner city houses. On the way there, the track even crosses itself once, when I had to stop abruptly at a traffic light. The GPS didn't realize I stopped and kept drawing the line halfway across the crossroads and then went back to where I was actually waiting. I can assure you, though, that I knew where I was going there and didn't cross my own path, as it's only like one kilometer from my house, so I should know the area,.
