Alight so sorry for the wait, I’ve been busy with things not important to you. Obviously I’ve already thanked everybody so I won’t do that again, but for the people too soft, lazy and/or busy to come, whatever the reason may be here’s a little of what you missed out on.
Map, with marked points. Printed on A4 Colour this made up part of what riders received at the start point, which is also marked on the map.
These instructions were A4 and were printed on the other side of the map, also in colour.
These slips were given to out by the check pointers, at the checkpoints. Each colour code was approximately a 1/3 of an A4 sheet of paper and also printed in colour.
All you had to do is go to the question mark to get questions and then answer the question by going to the coloured star. Not overly hard I thought, but apparently not, as I had to explain. I think everyone was alright once that happened, but if not, tough luck – colours aren’t usually that confusing. Some people were also confused by some of the riddles, some not so much. With 56 maps handed out, we had 28 finishers, the rest turned up sporadically and with longnecks.
The Finish point was also not marked on the map. The location of the end point was revealed when you went to the black question mark.
