AUSSIE MTBO

Uringa had a very small group attending the Australian MTBO Championships in Victoria.
Nick and Marg tossed their trusty Speedwells into the back of the Prius for the trip to Wangaratta.
Altogether there were 4 events so lots of pedalling and numb bums!
The competition started off with a Middle Distance race and disaster struck early for Nick a navigational error saw him miss control 1 and so a mp was his final placing. Marg was better however disaster struck after control 10 and that was the end of her race.
The next race was the sprint and the trusty Speedwells and the brains were as one together and Nick finished a handy 24th in M50 and Marg was placed 10th in W50.
Then there was the long:
Nick did well to finish 21st in his group whilst Marg unfortunately recored another mp.
The final event was a relay and Marg's team competing in mixed length (short, medium and long) finished just a handful of seconds in front of Nicks - 34th and 35th respectively.
I think this is the first time in MTBO Champs for our intrepid pair. Well Done
