Expedition

thepiguy and srs0

thepiguy and srs0 had been in Germany for a little over a week; they were extremely busy, trying to get settled in and starting their new jobs. But they always kept one eye on the internet, biding their time for something to happen, something like this!

They set out at 15:00 with their brand new bikes, a map, the coordinates, a gps and only the vaguest idea of how to get there. They followed the river, or the closest bike friendly path they could find to the south. They were starting to question their orientation when they spotted a sign to a town with a name that they sort of kind of remembered.

The coordinates were ~750m from the main road they were on, and they were way ahead of schedule, so they decided to keep heading south and grab lunch in the next town. Heading back toward the hash, they followed the only directions they had: the gps heading. It lead them past the hash, to ridiculous dirt hill blocked by a fence, then back past the hash again to a small suburb, back up the afore mention hill, into an adjacent field, along a dirt path and finally to a small clearing in between fields that contained a single bike and Danatar!
