What a great way to spend Boxing Day morning - navigating Iain's very well planned courses, with the addition of the maze in the middle ! Many thanks to Iain for creating another masterpiece and all those involved with today's event - Kath as safety, Kath and Gav for first aid cover, Francis and Alan H for control collecting and the SI Team of Ali, Mike, Andy & Chris.
Due to the complexity of the mapping today with the maze in the middle, apologies but we are unable to upload courses to Routegadget.
Just a quick note from the SI Team - please remember to download as soon as you've completed your course, this is our safety check to ensure you have returned, also if you are entering on the day, it would be appreciated if you could please bring the correct change with you !!
