1. What does it mean by “Bike Orienteering”?
Participants need to travel around the event area on mountain bikes using
maps as guidance. The aim is to visit as may checkpoints possible within 5
hour time limit. At each checkpoint, participants will stamp their individual
passport using the special orienteering punchers stationed there.
Participants will be issued (1) event map and (2) personal passport during the
morning of event.
2. What is the difference between “Bike Orienteering” and normal
bike events?
“Bike Orienteering” event areas are usually too large for all checkpoints to be
visited within time limit. As such, participants have the freedom to select for
themselves how many checkpoints to visit and their order. Therefore there is
no pre-determined course to be followed. Participants thus enjoy a variety of
riding levels based on route taken and also the opportunity to avoid
bottlenecks due to only 1 riding course for normal biking events.
As this concept is still new in Malaysia, the GPS event will outline
recommended biking tracks that participants can choose to follow to reach the
various checkpoints. Nevertheless, participants are allowed the freedom to
use other routes available to reach the checkpoints.
