Hare: Durex
Weather: Good for January
Pack size: 20+
This time last year I set the Mickleover Hash from the nearby Smithfield in blizzard conditions with a hash pack of just 6. This time the weather was much improved, a shower of rain just after I finished laying the trail which had stopped in time for the run at 19:15. A good turn out left me feeling I should have made those checks much more difficult, especially with plenty of FRBs to do the checking.
This is an excellent pub for a hash venue (what a range of ales!) and a safe
venue for a winter hash with a good mainly lit and off-road paths. I also wanted to run hashers past Derby's new cycling Arena and pass down a very quiet London Road (the bridge over the railway has just been demolished and the road is closed to traffic). However, Trianal did have an interesting encounter with a maniac on a quad bike also making the most of a traffic-free road.
