MTB-O at Emerald / Maccelsfield. Planned a route to collect all bar one CP. Realized early on that I was moving very slowly across the map, but unfortunately Dave and I had planned a route in the opposite direction to most others and had few bail out options. Dave was more ambitious and tried to complete most of it whereas I cut my losses and cut out the second loop. I made it back in time, whereas (Dave 10mins, Josh 21mins, Geary 5mins) most others didn't. When will we learn! Otherwise was riding quite well on the hilly course.
Note: with 240 points I beat Dave and Josh :-)
