Planning

• What are the odds that in the usual European graticule (that means 100km x 60km) the hashpoint will appear in the walking distance from your home?
• What are the odds the weather will be nice in the middle of Polish December?
• What are the odds JRK will wake up before noon and find enough strength to face frost and winter laziness?

Expedition

Against all odds - I did it! :)

The hash was just 4 or 5 streets away, on the outskirts of my home city, in the area I know very well, as it used to be me usual bike route (therefore I claim Déjà vu achievement!) The sun was shining, the temperature was slightly below zero, the walk there and back took me around 45 minutes.

I feel good :).
