Mountain Bike Orienteering at Milngavie

An early start at Milngavie with some early cold rain to make the start quite challenging. The ride through town and towards the first control didn't go very well with it being really hard to locate myself on the map. After finding the first control things were looking up a bit and started to make fairly steady progress. The weather brightened up and enjoyed some really nice scenery with some great views out towards Conic Hill. The map was split into two halves and I think I must have gone for the wrong half needing to head back to base though the middle of the map rather than pick up more controls within the 3 hour time limit. Points wise it was a very poor performance but really enjoyed it. May head back and do the other half of the map some time.
