Plans

Go there on my bull before work.

Expedition

Todays hashpoint was just 7 KM from home. Definitely to close not to go. As I didn't have a lot of time I took my bull in the early morning to go there before work. The ride was as expected. I've been on this road for several times and didn't expect any surprises. I had to leave the road some 100 m before the hashpoint. I rode along a forest path and after a while a fence started at my left side. Damn, that's the direction of the hash. I hope it'll stop soon enough. I rode on up to 60 m to the hash when it was in a right angle to the path and the fence was still on my left side. There was something like a gate so I could try to enter the fenced territory, but first I walked a bit further. Maybe the fence will end? And I didn't believe my eyes, just 30 m further the fence suddenly stopped, just to continue 5 m further, leaving a broad and overgrown way between the two fences.

It was still quite early in the morning and the morning dew was hanging in the gras, just waiting for me to come along and take it with me when I walked through the knee high gras.The hashpoint came nearer and nearer and still there were fences on both sides of me but then, just when garmin was close to a right angle again, the fences stopped again and a small path crossed my way, which gave place to the hash today. Some hash dancing, some pictures and I quick walked back to my bull and rode home again to change my wet shoes before I continued my ride to work.

PS: When I came home from work I found 4 small black raptors that were biting me and I still feel some itching all over my body. So I have no photographical proof of it but I definitely fought some of them.
