BikeO 75 Mountain Bike Series

Discover mountain bike orienteering at a BikeO 75 Series event, ideal as an introduction to MTBO or for those wishing to enjoy a weekend bike ride of discovery.

Riders have up to 75 minutes to visit as many controls on the supplied colour map as you can. You choose which ones to visit and which way to get there and back. Each control is worth 20 points. 10 points penalty per minute for those longer than 75 minutes.

Please make sure you read the BikeO-75 Information Flyer before entering, so that you know what to expect at the events.

The MapRun smartphone/watch app will be used to record control locations. Bring your smartphone or bluetooth-enabled Garmin watch.  Find out more about MapRun.  Make sure you download the latest version of MapRun (for phones) or MapRunG (for compatible watches), before you arrive.
