Discussion: Splits

Splits for #15 and #16 are estimates since I punched my split button late (was already en-route to #16).

As course setter and map updater, I had a bit of unfair advantage. But, I'm not complaining.

I took splits at 3, 7, and the finish, if I remember correctly. It looks like Gerald had trouble at 2, too.

It's not clear whether he had trouble or not.

Yeah, I took a bearing from #1 and ended up off to the left (inline with the end of drive/beginning of turnaround). I tried looking for that subtle bend on the contour but was not successful. It could be that the map is a little off in that area, but I doubt it. I've been having issues running on direct bearing lately, always off a little to the left somehow. Besides, I approached #2 later from the east (during control pickups - from the rootstock near the southwestern edge of the rock cliff) and hit it just fine.

I beat Superman! How cool is that? Of, course, it is only due to the glitch that I didn't get a split at number two, and therefore "Superman" has to settle for Gerald's times to 2 and 3. But, its still pretty cool!
