Results from Castletownbere Level 2 One Day Event 10.09.16

A decision was made to remove all penalties for the equipment check on the POR phase.  Here are the revised results from the one-day three phase level two event held at Castletownbere on 10th September 2016.

Our thanks to Julie and Annie of Lios Lara Riding Stables for hosting this event, to all their helpers, to Bastian (Technical Delegate), to Ian (Traceur), to Christina (Vet) and to everyone who helped make this a special day.  There was a fantastic response by West Cork TREC members to our request to provide pairings for all our under 18 riders who wanted to compete at Level 2, and in the end we had 13 pairs out competing in the three phases and 2 individuals riding H/C in the POR.  The weather improved during the morning, allowing the riders to enjoy the stunning scenery on the POR route which took us down quiet back roads and along off-road mountain tracks.  The MA phase was ridden while out on the POR route, which was an interesting twist to our normal 3 phase competitions.  We had a total of 29 riders for the PTV phase which started later that afternoon.  The PTV course took us out across the fields near the stables and the stream that runs between two fields was utilised as a water crossing obstacle.  It was a really enjoyable day, and we hope to return to Castletownbere again.
