Location

The hash lies in Frankfurt am Main, Niederräder Ufer, next to Mainfeldstraße.

Participants

Plans

Try to make a xkcd-meetup.

Expedition


		I left home at 8:15, and started to hitchhike at 9:00 at my usual place. But it was some fog and most of the people looked unfriendly. After an hour I decided to try the sliproad at the Auestadion. There I waited less than 15 minutes. With three cars I arrived at Frankfurt-Riedstadt at 14:23. With the bus 29, the trams U2 and 15 I arrived at 15:40 at the Haardtwaldplatz. Then I walked along Haardtwaldstraße and Niederräder Ufer to the hash.
		I found the site and while I looked for the exact place I found a hashmark! Another geohasher was here! But who?
		The hash lay in the middle of the street, about fourty centimeters away from the dashed line. And I looked around:
to the north, into Mainfeldstraße	to the west, along Niederräder Ufer	to the east, same street
GeorgDerReisende	view to the south	I wrote my own mark.
		After a walk through the Europaviertel I wanted to hitchhike from a petrol station, but it was closed, so I changed to the Messekreisel, started to hitchhike at 20:00, within seconds a car stopped and I got a lift to Kassel and arrived at home at 22:45.
