This weekend saw the 31st, and last, Tinto Twin races. A cold, clear night race followed by a day race (in a blizzard). CLYDE had class winners in Kirsten (W16), Alastair Dunlop (M45) and Dave Robertson (M55). Well done to all who took part, and many thanks to Tinto for running such a magnificent, idiosyncratic, annual series for so many years. Provisional Results and more to follow on the Tinto website.
Mild weather and well planned courses which made the most of the technical and physical demands of Mill of Dinnet near Aboyne were key ingredients for a very enjoyable and successful British Night Orienteering Championships last weekend. The outstanding CLYDE result was undoubtedly Dave Robertson's excellent win in M55, but there were also highly commendable podium places for CLYDE members Thomas Wilson (3rd in M21) and Emma Wilson (3rd in W20), both running for EUOC. Full results can be found here.
The three CLYDE members who won their classes in the Scottish Orienteering League 2018 were awarded their trophies at the first event of 2019 in Aboyne earlier today. The CLYDE winners were Thomas Wilson (also EUOC) in M21 (and Black Course winner), Emma Wilson (also also EUOC) in W20, and Donald Petrie in M60. Congratulations also to the other CLYDE top three finishers, Dave Robertson (2nd M50L), Alice Wilson (2nd W16), Lindsay Robertson (2nd W21S), and Amelia Petrie (3rd W60L).
