| MTB O race (Turner Hill-Avanti comp) 2:30:00 [4] | |
| shoes: Specialized Mtb |
| MTB O Turners Hill.Took what i thought was the fool proof way to control 1as the 1 track seemed to lead straight there only to be still seaching for it 20mins later,was even up near Turner hill its self at one stage.At a couple of times would of been no more than a 100mtrs from the control.In the end used the tapes across the bush to work it out abit more and really only stumbled across it in the end by happening to be standing next to something that looked like a track so checked it out.Seemed to be a few unmarked tracks around there.Saw Fletch in the area as well so had made good ground but blow it.Rode pretty good for most of the ride in strength ways.Chain did come off a couple of times but thats my own fault for not bringing my new bike.Would like to see a route gadget on this event if any one can set one up as i think i took a few routes no one else did i.e 5-6,8-9.Was a good set course but would of liked to of seen a few shorter legs in there now and then as most seemed pretty long.Got my moneys worth again.Shouldnt MTB Jen be at home cooking,knitting or something like that?Well Done!!and to all. |
