WENT Finale Wed 16 Dec 15
The finale of the WENT series will be in Lady Dixon Park (top car park) on Wed 16th December. After 6 rain free (but not entirely dry) Wednesdays, we are all set for the 7th and final WENT for 2015. After last year’s debacle, Santa has briefed his elfs (elves?) very carefully: 15 controls, bonus points available, maybe some Christmas lights and certainly refreshment and prizes afterwards. Hopefully the elfs can be trusted to carry out instructions correctly this year as Santa may be too busy to supervise; whatever the result, a good time is guaranteed for all those that Read More …
Hawkshead Junior Training Update From Steph and Sophie
After an intrepid journey negotiating Black Friday traffic in Belfast, consulting my watch every 2 minutes on the stationary Airport Non- Express and finally paying ÂŁ6 (well spent) for speedy security check, Sophie and I boarded the plane to Manchester with 2 minutes to spare. We met there with Pat ‘the Pied Piper’ McCavana and 7 M/ W16s from Dublin and divided up the kids between us. I got the boys and was treated to an eclectic musical soirĂ©e as we cruised up the M6 to the LakeDistrict and Hawkshead Youth Hostel. The forecast was appalling and after a fantastic Read More …

WENT 6 Hillsborough Forest Park Wed 9 Dec
After the high speed thrill of Jonny Smicka’s loops around Botanic Gardens and QUB last week, WENT changes gear this week to take on the darkness of Hillsborough Forest Park. Alan Elwood has devised a series of challenges for every standard, so it will be worth the effort to travel out to Hillsborough. As usual we meet by 7.15 pm for a 7.30 pm mass start. The time limit will again be 45 minutes and we will be back to having the chance to pick up bonus points by revisiting a central control. This time, however, you will have to visit Read More …
IntrO Champions
It has not proved possible to identify a suitable site for a Night TempO cluster alongside the final WENT on wed 16th so the results published after the PreO and TempO events at Hillsborough are the final standings for 2015. Congratulations to Stephen Gilmore (PreO) and Frazer Howe (TempO) on usurping Declan McGrellis’s double champion standing from 2014. The final standings can be viewed in the IntrO folder here. Mind you, it wasn’t much of a usurp for Declan finished a very close second in both disciplines. My thanks to the small posse of TrailO devotees for making my efforts Read More …
