Ni Colour Series 6 Tyrella, Brown. I always love running here, even if it does leave you with serious bruises and scratches. Messed up number 1 as I thought I could cross the ditch and then when I realised I couldn't I then went the wrong way to get around it. Ended up at number 1 with StephP and BrianJ and we were joined by Frazer by 2. Pack stayed together for a while before Frazer left us at 5 and Steph at 7. Brian and I then battled it out for the rest of the course, he was much faster but I was more accurate. Apart from number 1 and a wobble at 7 I was pretty much bang on to every control, apart from the final control where I reckon I am competing with Susan for the worst route choice in the world. Either right to the road or left to the beach would have worked, going straight did not. Lost at least 4 mins faffing around in the gorse.
