MTB
Kevin holloway and Nick calkin (below) took place in the www.trailbreak.co.uk navigator race at Princes Risborough, today.
The 3.5 hour MTB orienteering used a new format where each competitor had to complete 8 checkpoints in a designated order before qualifying to complete the rest of the course.
With local knowledge a great help, Kevin and Nick managed to clear most of the checkpoints, despite early rain making the chalky bridleways fairly tricky, to be placed 1st and 2nd overall. Nick finished on time with 540 points in 1st place and Kevin 2nd, just 10 points behind on 530.
Ralph Dadswell also competed and was placed further down the rankings.
