2nd leg for ShUOC
john brought us back in 8th, about 50 secs down
had a pretty good race. overtook the SLOW, EBOR, OD and NOC teams nearish the start. could see hector and neil ahead for most of the course. turns out we had exactly the same course except for the 2nd to last control. small miss on no 7 but pushed thorugh the spectator loop to try and catch up. they missed 11 slightly where I caught up. had the longer gaffle at the end and struggled up the hill. came back 4th behind SYO1, EUOC and SYO2.
unfortunately shminty lost a bit of time so dave set off in 5th, quite a way behind. ended up 5th.
