9.00am             Bike & Foot Navigation Session… Now it’s your turn.  After driving out to the start location, you will set off on your bikes finding check-points and making your way on the trails..  Just like a real AR, you will have pre-marked your route…. On arrival at the ‘TA’, you will leave the bikes and embark on a foot navigation session finding the pre-marked checkpoints before meeting back at the bikes….and navigating your way back to the start. Then it will be time for a well-earned rest and debrief. J
