An awesome mix of mountain biking and navigation

At the start each competitor will receive a map showing points in the trail system where flags are located. All of these points are along trails, at junctions, bends or other specific locations, so if you can read a trail map, you can do MTB-O. Riders will visit these flags in numerical order, trying to choose the best route to find them all as quickly as possible.

Thursday, May 13th, 2010 – May Training Session by Christine Wallace. This will be a MTB-O training session. Please bring your bike and helmet to participate. This session will be held at the Palgrave location at 6:30pm. Free to all club members.

As always, keep an eye on the Orienteering Ontario website for upcoming navigation events around southern Ontario.  There are 6 clubs in southern Ontario, and there are often events within an hour's drive.

As you'll see on the Orienteering Ontario events calendar, the Thomass winter orienteering series continues until late March.  Thomass races are age/gender handicapped to level the playing field, and they are intended to be FUN.  Even if you have limited navigation experience, don't be afraid to come out and do even part of the course, or go out with a friend, or whatever makes you feel comfortable.  The races are inexpensive, and I can guarantee that if you start your day by running around in the woods, the rest of your day will feel sooo much better!
