I've now made a big move to the Manchester, United Kingdom graticule from my old Tucson, Arizona. It's different here!
While I had acquired a Citation of sorts back in the US, and even brought it with me here, before I could ever use it here, it was stolen, found, impounded by the police, supposedly gone over for evidence, and then destroyed for no good reason. So here I am again, in Citation Needed-land. At least Public transport geohash achievements are much easier here than in the US.
Ironically, despite my username, I've never made an expedition by conventional car yet, much less by Karmann Ghia.
Expeditions
- 2008-11-02 32 -110 Land, Bicycle achievements
- 2008-11-03 32 -110 Consecutive Geohash achievement
- 2009-02-27 31 -110 This was the day I rode my motorcycle through a geohash on a dirt road, which would have entitled me to a Speed racer achievement and started me on Minesweeper Geohash. I lack evidence, but Wyle & RoadRunner were willing to allow it.
- 2017-11-18 53 -2 My first UK geohash, and Public transport geohash achievement and partial Globetrotters Geohash
- 2018-02-10 53 -2 A spot on the pavement just outside Picadilly Station
- 2018-09-09 53 -2 A spot on the pavement in a residential area of Mossley
- 2019-02-02 53 -2 In the kitchen of the Ikea restaurant, just out of reach to us mere civilians
- 2019-03-09 53 -2 The hash point was just 5 metres from a tram line.
- 2020-02-01 53 -2 The hash point is just half a mile from my house! And it's right in the park! The water park, that is… and it's right over the lake. How can I possibly reach it? Stay tuned to find out!
