About Me
Late to the party but so far I've found Geohashing intriguing and a lot of fun. My home Graticule is Buffalo, NY which had been quiet for quite some time before I picked it up late in 2014. I have met a couple Geohashers and I'm hoping to meet more folks when I'm traveling. I have also found some great spots for hiking with the dogs in my adventures.
I love to get out on my bike for long road rides but I haven't gotten out as much as I'd like these past few years. I must say that geohashing has really changed my rides. I am one of those guys that has no problem doing the same course over and over because I know what to expect (hills, time, etc). I have a hard time deciding on a new course especially without being familiar with the area I'm going to as I don't want to get lost. Riding to hashes is great because I have a destination to go to, directions are usually pretty easy to remember and most importantly, I get to see new things.
