CompassSport Cup Final, Pippingford Park, M45, Course 2, 8.4km.
A bit of a trudge as I only had one gear, was slightly better than I feared but was still way off. Plan was to be clean to compensate but messed that up by making a parallel error at #5 and finding a control where I was expecting it (fortunately checked my codes).
Lots of issues with vegetation on the map, no idea why the copious amounts of head high bracken wasn't mapped, which made a lot of it a bit of a lottery, but also couldn't see most of the 'distinct' veg changes and then spent some time searching around unmapped thickets for the one that was mapped...
Dead towards the end and happy not to be doing a longer course - took more than twice the winners time on the run in! However, I did enough to be a counter (even if I was well beaten by Dave and Roger) and FVO did well enough to regain the title.
