MTBO control punching
Trailblazers MTBO promotes the sport of MTBO in Northern Ireland.
MTBO is a sport that combines the excitement of mountainbiking and the mental demands of navigation.
Our aim is to provide a series of events thoughout Northern Ireland, using several formats
including lane/trailquest score events and the traditional MTBO events.
What are Trailquest and MTBO events! i hear you scream – basically Trailquest is where riders in pairs or teams have a set time to find as many control points (CPs) in any order using a map to navigate between CPs.
MTBO is similar in that a map is used to navigate between control points, however control points must be visited in order and there is no time limit – you just do the course as quick as possible.
don’t take my word for it though, here are some explanations from the TCA website
Trailquest
-and some hints on MTBO from the New Zealand MTBO website
