MTBO State Series Event #5
30 April 2006 at Nerrina
Yarra Valley Orienteering Club.
There had been rain during the week, and rain overnight on the Saturday night so the tracks
were wet and the clay sticky, but there was no rain or wind on the Sunday (or on Saturday
while setting up the event). The wet riding conditions made course winning times a bit
longer than had been planned. We had 63 entries, some were groups (and not all the groups
listed all their names) so weÕre not sure of the total numbers Ð probably 69.
This event had originally been planned for Bendigo but refusal by Parks Victoria led to a late
change. Many thanks to Eureka OC for the use of their Nerrina map. And thanks to the
Bendigo OC for their original cooperation. A big thank you to the Little Bendigo Primary
School principal and community for the use of their school. Thanks to everyone for
respecting their facilities.
Due to a mis-communication, YVOC was a little short of helpers on the day. Many thanks to
Liz Hatley and Kevin Maloney for their assistance.
