Finally a Saturday hashpoint in reachable distance (so far, only 3/31= <10% of my expeditions have been Saturday Meetups, instead of 14%). I started at 14:50 and used the by now well-known route to Dettelbach. The last 4 km were new for me and included a nasty slope. Due to a thin layer of snow (or muddy snow) on a large part of the track, it could not go as fast as usual, but I was only 200 m from the hashpoint when the Neuses church bell struck 4 pm. I did not trample the crops but stayed on the track 20 m from the hashpoint. On the return trip, there was nothing special.

Distance cycled: 21.7 + 21.7 = 43.4 km, 370 m uphill.
