DVOA Ridley Creek - Green
Not my best and not my worst, I guess. I had a few minutes of issues with both 6 and 7, checked out a wrong control on the way to 12, and made probably a bad route choice to 17. My original plan was to take trails to the top and drop down to it, but then I got pulled off the road when I saw other people doing it. It turns out they had a closer control, so thanks to the false peer pressure I ended up doing this weird semi-contouring through the green, which involved crossing 2 streams. The green wasn't *super* awful, and I came out right by the control, so I guess it worked out ok but it was probably slower. My arm ended up bleeding a lot, though.
