| Mountain Bike Orienteering race (Tasmanian MTBO Championsh) 1:36:00 [4] ** 25 km (3:50 / km) | |
| spiked:10/10c shoes: Wellgo MTB |
| Started off slowly, just couldn't get my bearings trying to ride along a track that was overgrown by tea tree. Aparaently took the harder route choice to 2 (8.5km leg) with much more climb. So lost it there. Rest of the race was pretty cruisy until I spooked a horse and its rider did one of those 'hi ho silver ,,away" type horse maneouvres..ended up 5th...if it wasn't for all of the over 40's entering opens then it would've been 2nd. Get'em next time.
Note fix cleats so that I get the bloddy things outr of the pedals easily. Not a good look stacking at a control. |
