Workin' for the sweat of it

A warm monday evening with a kind of an unusual meeting point. The park and ride area of the Subway/Metro/Underground/Ubahn station Altes Landgut, located in the middle of a large roundabout with various roads leading to and fro a motorway (the A23) and several more main roads that fork off into Viennas vast 10th district. An explanation about the venues history was given by main Hare Primadonna (with CoHare Holy Roamin' Empress, OVH), furthermore the run offered a walkers and a runners trail. More history can be seen here.

Crossing the roundabout at the nearest trafficlight and on up to a few green elevations which offered an impressive view of the very nearby motorway. (History about this road here and there). Three of four turns further on there was no more motorway but some green lawns, garden houses and children playgrounds (and a public school for good measure).

Open up! 

There were kinda strange wooden parts that you wouldn't want to take your dog to (damaged furniture, heavy littering) and after these there was pure green again, and there were not too many checkpoints to be seen. Or maybe I was a tad too slow. A very interesting appartment bloc area came along called Monte Laa, where spacious parts of these appartment buildings were built directly above a tunnel of the motorway A23 that runs underneath. Still further on it was on back over a footbridge across the motorway, leading past the old Ankerbrot Factory, mainstay of Eurohash 2017 in Vienna.
Eventually the trail ended up where we went to a year ago already, which is a closed motorway ramp of the A 23 (the "Gesperrte Ausfahrt Simmering"). Imagine to walk up a hill, get yourselves over the nearest guardrail and watch the evening traffic float by, 250 metres from you. Crown that precious moment with - what? - an Egg liquor stop! Here is another impression of this venue. (We stayed on the other side but these roads lead together)

Watch out! 

No Hashers were harmed in the making of this picture

Partly the same procedure as last year, we entered the area of the Laaerberg with the amusement park Böhmischer Prater where we had a glorious beer stop 12 months ago. Not this time, but thats another story. The trails' last part was set all the way through the vast green forest area of the Böhmische Prater, alongside the recently new built soccer stadium of the club Austria Wien and at long last back to the cars.

Deep within Viennas 10th district

The feature of the circle was with no doubt cold beer in bottles, yet only two boxed were purchased by ze Hares. Sure, there was a certain amount of beer cans but equate 32 thirsty Hashers with the given amount of beer and TICK TOCK could you set your timer until the stuff ran out. Although, we had a funny circle  and two visitors from Eurohash who returned two years later (and another visitor from the Berlin Hash). Also, there was a beer mile organized on Bastille Day by the usual suspects Barefoot and Mr. Pink in the Park of Schönbrunn Castle. All in all, a truly scenic run and very well prepared.

Don't fence me in!

Lots of Moron Pics can be seen here.
