Event Report
Peatling Parva Mountain Bike Orienteering Event
Peatling Parva Village Hall, Ashby Road, Lutterworth, Leicestershire, LE17 5PX. Sunday 11th May.
39 riders ventured out on a blustery Sunday, thankfully it was dry for most of the time although there was the occasional squall to keep riders on their toes.
We saw a ride range of category entries – it was great to see entries in the W21 class, something that we definitely want to encourage.
In the end it was close fought finish for top place, with Ian Cartwright eventually emerging victorious by 5 points over close rival Mark Rowley.
Both scored 460 pts from visiting controls and then it was down to who could get back it time to take the victory. Ian was 2 mins late and Mark a further 4 mins down, so the penalty points were in Ian’s favour to allow him to take the spoils with the narrowest of margins.
Phil Upton led the rest of the pack to the final position on the podium with a score of 401 points.
Thanks to all who attended and we look forward to the next event in the Midlands MBO series in South Notts on the 8th June.
Full results from the event are available on the BMBO site.
