Maps

I kept fogetting my maps for scanning, so it is a bit late, but at least you can see where I have been in April and early May.

The first map is from Day 1 of the Postas Kupa which was in mid-April. Jano took the event back to the area from 2 years ago in the plains with forested sand dunes and lots of technical wiggles, made difficult by juniper jungle, although not as bad as last November's season closer. The course was excellent, albeit a bit long for me at nearly 5km. At least there was no climb, other than up and down the dunes and the soft sand making it a bit more physical than it looked.

The other event was last Saturday on typical continental terrain: steep, forested, rocky and very green in places. I was out for quite a while on 4.8km with 165m of climb. I really felt like leaving it half way round, but persevered, like I always do. It was also pretty hot, which didn't help either.

Night Champs this Saturday where I am likely to end up on the podium as there are only the two of us entered. Unfortunately Ildi starts 4 minutes after me, so unless she makes a large mistake (not very typical of her) I can't see me winning.
