Expedition

Once again, Reinhard was on his way from Jena to Leipzig after work. The hashpoint lay close to a road that wasn't that far from the Autobahn exit Eisenberg, which Reinhard always uses for getting to Leipzig. Thus, he could park the car just before he was going to drive onto the Autobahn without driving any noteworthy detour. He parked near The McDonald's in an industrial area and started the short bike trip. Passing a huge time-and-temperature commercial sign, he saw that temperature has fallen down to -8°C. That's why it felt so cold on the bike! After crossing Eisenberg it was only 3 km to the hashpoint near Etzdorf. About 80 m Reinhard had to push the bike over the frozen field. (Since it was a little above zero the preceding days, the snow was molten at the surface and frozen again, making it very solid.) Finding the exact position was no problem on the open field. After taking the usual pictures, Reinhard continued his trip back to the car, ending it after 16.9 km.
