*This is not including the extracted controls*

Hmm good, fun race =D
The first bit in the houses I did well I think but in some places I was slowing for map reading =/ and on 5 & 6 got bad route choices but minimised the time loss.
Fine for the rest of the course apart from at the end where I didn't read the CDs and missed the pond slightly.
Time lost umm...
(not including RC or slowing)- 5s =)
RC maybe.. 20-30s =)
Slowing= ???
Total= 35s max =D

*DQ'd*

2nd starter on the event because the leaders er.. lead

1- Had a fast start but forgot to turn off at the time i should have, probably caused by running in front of that car.. so carried on because by then there was no point turning back and I didn't loose much anyway but then still on the first leg I miss counted the buildings and hesitated before carrying on. Still.. i got there before Martin. 10s

3- Got caught off by a wall, would have been about 1-2s but there was a car barrier and extra fence which cost me maybe 6s

8- Phoney route choice which I abandoned before I went down the dead end bit and went on the next one which was 20s longer than the best aprox. 20s
9- Ohhh nasty... Some people were looking around the plants and I hadn't checked my clues then they sprinted off before I got there so I thought they got it so I looked around for 15s before checking the clues (short control) and realising it was up.. 15s
10- ✔
12 & 11- Yes 12, I went under the underpass (...) and there was nothing like what I expected, I was looking for a wall to say 'yep the map is up now' but there wasn't one so I went into a car park the bad thing was it had similarity to the map above me so i ended up running into this corridor with a few offices and stuff (exit quickly) Back at the underpass i went right and up then down steps to 12 where I saw it was the wrong number and all that time i was looking for the wrong control... 1min 40s
12- ✔
13- ✔
14- 3s got on the wrong side of a wall
15- Most of these controls I punched were inside out up side down or needed waking up. I went to the wrong one on this one I went to an up side down number 95 looking for 65.. it was my own fault and and I think i lead others astray too... DQ'd +20s
