Partner Wanted for Adventure Racing
-
Topic created by shiatsuron on Thu Aug 21, 2014 at 4:24 pmI am looking for a partner to do adventure racing with! Many races are local, even on maps you are familiar with. They are 6 hours in length, at least to start with.I am looking for an over 40 male or female, as we would most often enter in the master class. You need only intermediate orienteering skills, should be able to ride a mountain bike on a variety of terrains (rarely very technical), be willing to get wet & dirty and still think you're having a good time. Paddling skills are a plus, but not really needed.My partner of many races, Doug Sevon, has moved and I am looking to share these local events with someone new. Next race is at Marsh Creek State Park, Oct 19th.We have all been reading lately how orienteering has worked it's way into this type of event, now it's your turn to experience it!Reply...shiatsuron@yahoo.com610 873-7698
