Toasted legs by this stage of the trip - legs were even less keen on the uphills than usual

C • Legs 4

From accommodation in daylesford through forest trails and back along stream track which would have been really good without all of the fallen trees and Steve taking up base jumping with a MTB instead of a parachute... Luckily he walked back up from the bottom of the cliff with only scratches, scrapes and a buggered finger

Relocation with Marquita (0:45) started well then brain turned off. Still managed to relocate as we were on significant features however didn't remember too much about where we'd been :-(

Sprint (0:45) the track the first control was on was very vague, messed up exit and then next control (went back later and nailed it). Then got my controls mixed up at end and thought I was on last control when I was actually on second to last, no wonder things didn't match up on the map!

C • Relocation 3

Had a small map printout but didn't have a decent O map so went for a walk/wander/rock climb up at kooyoora which is a pretty cool place to be.

Loops with Steve (1:10) - some indistinct tracks made things a bit tricky!

Ride to next start triangle with Katie (0:10)

Long loop (1:00)

Loops with Erin (1:20)

Line following (1:00) with varying degrees of success as some tracks were rather indistinct (even non existent)

Ride through forest to Maryborough (0:20)

Ride back to Lochinver (0:30)

Hall's Gap (Grampians) - walk up to the pinnacles. The "grand canyon" wasn't in flood this year and while it was cold and rainy, it wasn't as bad as last year so we got to the top for some nice views and a good leg stretch.
