Route analysis
Caddihoe 2017
With terrain markedly more difficult than our average club event, the long distance race at Upton & Gwithian Towans provided all manner of traps for the unwary orienteer. Analysed here are some of the legs that provided a test.
Course planning

At the races
Urban win for Andrew
It was the bank holiday weekend, so where better to spend it than at the races? Epsom anyone? That's where urban specialist Andrew Page headed, in the first of two runs in the South East. He now has his nose in front in the Southern England urban league.
Pyrenees 5 Days
QO presence
In mid August, Andy Rimes and Rosie Wych took part in all five days of the O Cerdanya 2017 tournament in the Catalan Pyrenees, straddling the French and Spanish borders. Both acquired good results... and good tans. Video
Mountain Bike Orienteering
Wheely good result for Chris
Orienteering action returned to the Quantocks on Sunday- but only if you had wheels. Chris Phillip was third out of 38 riders on the Quantocks on Sunday, in SWEMBO's latest three hour "score" event. Well done Chris! Results, Report
Scottish 6 Days 2017
Review, by day
An amazing week we had on Royal Deeside! Fourteen from QO and JOG headed north, half being S6D debutants but some veterans of multiple campaigns. Forecasts of rain were mainly scotched; at worst we had mildy intrusive drizzle and at best, summer heat with bright and clear views.
Scottish 6 Days
Armchair training
The tricky and technical terrain at the Scottish threw up all sorts of scope for errors...and happen they did. Here is a selection of Routegadget excerpts showing pitfalls that lay in wait for those who represented us up there. How would you have tackled the legs in question? Training pages
Scottish 6 Days
Who went?
We had a good representation up in the Highlands with 10 members and 4 JOGgers attending. Half of those were making their S6D debuts. Well done to them and Bill Vigar, 2nd on M80 plus Tony Hext and the Robertsons for competing in all six days and the so-called rest day.
Startrack event

In late July, we put on a maze course for school children who are keen on athletics during this annual week-long sporting event run by a well-established Somerset-based athletics club
New season
Caddihoe curtain-raiser
The new season kicks off (bleeps off?) with some fantastic dune action taking place on the first weekend in September at the annual Caddihoe. The 10 or so QO members who've entered have a sprint race and long and middle distance races to look forward to.
