Googong Multisport Rogaine Apr 3 2011

Aaron and I competed in the multisport Rogaine that Dave and Julie set on April 3rd 2011, around the Googong area, we ended up only using bikes as we did not see a need to take the boat out and a full lap of the dam with getting controls took the whole time we had anyway.

We started late, phaffed around a lot during the event made a few mistakes (especially one big onoe on my part that cost us an easy 100 points) and still had a fun day out there.
