King of the Hill

Mountain Bike Orienteering at Nail Can Hill, Albury

Sunday 16 July 2006

 

ÒThe King of the HillÓ was a score event held on Nail Can Hill in Albury by the Albury Wodonga Orienteering Club. Unfortunately conditions were cold and muddy, but we attracted a lot of newcomers, including many junior riders.

 

There were 3 course lengths to choose from; riders on the longest course had to get 560 points, middle course 250 pts and short course 120 pts. The first back with those points in each course was the winner. Competitors got their map 30 mins before start.

 

AWOC has about 45 permanent controls on the hill, which measures approximately 7km x 3km. It was anticipated for the long course the winner would cover about 25-28 km in 2 hours. The wet slippery tracks (lots of single trail) made progress slow. There are many controls around the foot of the hill, so some competitors went up and down the hill a few times. Controls point values ranged from 10 to 30 pts.
