Event: ACT MTBO Championships
10 AM
MTBO race 32:58 [5] 7.68 km (4:18 / km) +162m 3:53 / km
ahr:158 max:173
ACT MTBO Sprint - East Kowen
1st.
First starter. No issues to 5 other than route choice.
6, 7, & 8 all in the grassy open areas and as the first starter there were no tracks through the long grass to follow.
Went past my intended turn to go to 9. Continued on single track from 10 to finish, seems it was quicker to go out to the fire track? Though not sure as had issue with registering the finish.

ACT MTBO Middle - Sparrow Hill
3rd.
Lost 13 minutes on control 7. In hindsight I must have ridden over an overgrown fire road and not realised it. Tracks I got to seemed to match the map and given the vagueness of some of the “tracks” that weren’t really there I assumed I was missing a vague intersection. Rest was OK except the long up hill leg after my big mistake. Wasn’t really motivated to push hard.
Being an early starter the vague “tracks” were hard to find. Particularly in and out of 4/160. Going back there for 12 it was much easier to see after lots of people had used it.
Was only about 6 minutes behind winner in the end.

BOSS 2 at Hawkemount. OK for line course but no real plan for score section. Was thinking about all the things that needed to get done at home so I could get to the ACT champs.
