Pretty easy one. Quick lunch-time expedition by unicycle. I did have a bit of excitement where I zoned out a bit and got going too fast, and realized I was tipping forward. Luckily I was able to jump forward and off and run it out.

Expeditions

Successful

Unsuccessful

Retrohashes

I don't like to drive a car for geohashing purposes. Unfortunately in my home of Austin, TX this makes most hash points impractical to travel to. As an alternative sort of mini-adventure, I've compiled a list of the 600+ hash points within 20 km of my home since the birth of geohashing (2008-05-21) using https://kripakko.neocities.org/geohash_retro/, and am attempting to visit them in chronological order.

I probably won't bother making full-fledged entries for these expeditions, though may make a note on pages that already exist.
