Cyclogaine 6-hr

SUNDAY: This is a team event that can either be done on bicycle (cyclogaine) or on foot (metrogaine). It involves an A2 map straight out of the Melways, with 90 controls worth variable points, and 6 hours to get as many as you can. Except the controls weren't controls, they were clues. ie, clue 3C: What is the garden ornament at No 18 M____ Place? A=windmill B=fountain C=gnome D=angel. Clue 5E: What day does Knox veteran Club use the athletics track? etc.

Quite fun! And being on the bikes meant that the kilometers ticked over fairly quickly.

One of my team was feeling the pain of a new bike, so we turned for home after 4 hours, and was back at the Hash House by 5:17, hungry for a feed. All in all, a good day out - my legs held out (phew!), even the bum isn't too sore this morning. 46 kms in 3:22 cycling time.
