NZ Sprint champs, Nelson. Just too slow on the day to be competitive, definitely not in the same shape as for Waitangi! Technically ok though, apart from trying to use a non-existent route choice to 11 (bad), and missing some gaps which led to an unnecessarily long way in to 15 (minor). Through 1 and 2 thought I was getting off to a bad start, but afterwards can't see any better way of getting them, and at this point I was pretty well placed suggesting everyone else had also been pretty cautious at the start ...or they weren't! Also thought during the course there wasn't much in the way of route choice options but have spotted quite a few afterwards - in some cases probably better than ones I used but not so much that I should have spent a few more seconds thinking on the relevant legs. What I really liked was how the 'terrain' kept changing through the course - just when you were getting your head into each part of the map, you were into the next, different, part.
