Mtn Bike (Langford Park) 1:33:02 [3] 1704.0 km (1099.0 kph)
ahr:136 max:168 shoes: Mtn Bike - Avanti something
Rerun of last years middle dist champs course.
Started off badly, couldn't see the track heading west from the start, so went the long way round. Then completely stuffed the first control, very easy to overshoot when there aren't any controls out there, ended up going a long way around to the north. Andre had caught me by 2 and tRicky was already heading out of 2.
Took the track next to the railway to 4 again, instead of the main road. Main road to 5, which Andre was just heading into from the railway. Passed Andre heading back to the railway, then he passed me again at the railway. Doubled back from the imaginary location of 6 sooner than Andre, so was in front again, then he shortcutted the roundabout, then I must have passed him again on the road towards 7. Heading out of 7 Andre was coming in from the wrong direction so must have missed the turn in, giving me a good break.
Pretty easy from there, looking out carefully for a couple of tracks that I'd missed during the champs.

Route selection exercise, riding in pairs. Dalto and I together, Andre and tRicky together. Taking different routes on each leg.
Major failure on one leg, when I missed the track for the easier route and ended up riding the same route as Dalto.
Legs starting to burn on some of the hills towards the end, made me think is this what KillaMetro will feel like after doing the 6hr Rogaine the day before.
Very liquified by the end.
Thanks Dalto.
