49.475km with 847m climb in 2:54:17. Mtbo score Haldon forest. Interesting technically with two oob dual carigways and big valleys. Decided lone 50 pointer probably not worth.it so went other way. 21 nice track over ridge to 1 tough climb for 2 quick through 3, 16, 17, 5. Went strictly on bw for 4 road and climb bank would be far quicker. 22 some serious downhill in the woods here. Skiped the bit between the roads so straight past race course out to 24. Realised no hour warning and checked phone to realise not started.correctly but about 1.10 gone. Next through single track section blue was fairly quick red had the odd breaking roughness but not to bad but not that quick either full sue would of been fun. Alos people to get by. 10, 11, 28, 15, 14, 12, 13, 9, 20. Still a long way back and less than an hour to go. Not allowed through race course as back gate shut due to car boot sale. Skipped 6, 18 got 7, 19, 26, 27. Track to 23 looked bad and with dodgy timing decided to skip so 8 and 25 to finish. On the edge of time but finish and start clocks 8 mins out so officially well early.
