RouteGadget - now with less caffeine

Jarkko Ryyppö the RouteGadget writer has released a new version that will work without Java and has a heap of nice features.

See Jarkko's video on the new features here:

Mt Annan

The Metroleague season started with a bang for The Feet with wins in all 3 Divisions in the searing heat of Mt Annan. Standout performances include Alastair George's 28 mins for the Div 3 course and Daniele Guardini & Greg Barbour taking home the 10 points in Div 2 and Div 1. Looks like selection decisions will be tough for the next round.

Aliens top 2013 big pink rankings

British orienteer Matt Crane and kiwi Lizzie Ingham topped the Big Pink rankings at the end of 2013. Lizzie was ranked 34th overall.

One place behind Lizzie was Big Foot's Brooner, who overhauled Patrik Gunnarsson at the end of the year. The top-ranked Big Foot woman was Tracy Marsh, who led home Paula Shingler.

Beware the Mindfields

The NSW middle distance champs visited an area rarely orienteered on by non-Novacastrians, the minefields of Bluegum Regional Park and adjacent mining rehabillitation area.

The addition of new symbols like "subsidence crack" along with Denis Lyons usual detailed mapping provided a mental challenge.

Big Foot takes Metro League cake(s) for fifth successive year

Big Foot defended their top-grade title for the fifth successive year with a convincing win over one of Garingal's many teams.

A win in Division D was the second succesive win for this team and now captain Miles Ellis worries that it has been too much too soon for this group, as he wrestles with salary cap pressures.
