New To Mountain Bike Orienteering Mountain Bike Orienteering is exactly that, orienteering on a mountain bike! It combines trail riding and navigation, using specially prepared maps, riders navigate along a network of tracks to controls. Each rider decides for themselves, the route they will take to visit each control in turn. The person who completes the course the quickest is the winner. You can be as competitive or as social as you like, with riders of all ages able to participate. Course lengths vary from approximately 6km to over 30km depending on the class contested, so there is a course suitable for every standard of rider. There are classes for males, females and pairs/groups, covering ages from 10 to over 70 years. Click Here to view some videos on how to get started with MTBO.
