Sea Otter Australia, a huge cycling festival and expo at Canberra’s Stromlo Forest Park from October 1-4, is taking the Sea Otter Classic that has run successfully in Monterey, California for 30 years and bringing it to the Southern Hemisphere for the first time. It is big, it is diverse, it is ambitious … and it is also very necessary to keep Bike SA performing at the level of engagement, advocacy and service to the cycling community that we want it to be for years to come. “For many years now we’ve seen that traditional events have been attracting fewer and fewer participants. This is not just a local issue, it is reflected around the country, affecting all our fellow state associations - we are all feeling the pinch,” Bike SA CEO Christian Haag says. “So this, combined with the consumers’ voracious appetite for new styles of events where they can use new products put out by the industry, means that for organisations like Bike SA to rapidly create new events and sell them to the community is a great challenge and an industry’s new products and we saw that an SA to a lack of interest for the government to fund expensive one. presentation of Sea Otter in September/October world-class events that may be perceived to would not only deliver the presentation of all the compete with a government-owned event like “For this reason, some years ago we were looking best bike bits that riders anticipate each year but the TDU.

  • Operational Policy
    Operational policy Visitor management Orienteering and rogaining in QPWS-managed areas Operational policies provide a framework for consistent application and interpretation of legislation and for the management of non-legislative matters by the Environmental Protection Agency (incorporating the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service). Operational policies are not intended to be applied inflexibly in all circumstances. Individual circumstances may require a modified application of policy. Policy subject This policy outlines the circumstances in which the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) may authorise and manage the conduct of orienteering and rogaining activities on QPWS-managed areas. Background While QPWS-managed areas provide a range of opportunities for different visitor activities, not all activities can be accommodated, as requirements for conserving natural and cultural values and other considerations including impacts on other uses, management programs, priority community needs and equity dictate against some activities. Orienteering and rogaining activities vary from relatively informal, small scale gatherings to large scale championship or carnival events. Such events can give rise to a range of issues and impacts, including damage to vegetation, disturbance of wildlife and possible disruption of other visitor activities. Further information on these activities is contained in Attachment 1. The particular scale and format of an event or events will determine the extent to which impacts are concentrated or dispersed across the landscape. Particular environments have different conservation and cultural significance and are more or less sensitive (resistant and/or resilient) to particular types, frequencies and intensities of use. Each of these factors will be critical in identifying the risks associated with proposed orienteering and rogaining activities, and in assessing and determining applications to conduct such activities.

  • SUGAR HILL ROGAINE II CNYO's 20 ANNUAL ROGAINE 2010
    SUGAR HILL ROGAINE II CNYO’s 20th ANNUAL ROGAINE 2010 UNITED STATES ROGAINING CHAMPIONSHIPS Date: July 31-August 1, 2010 Time: Mass start at noon on Saturday. Map issue for planning at 10am on Saturday. Duration: There will be options for 6, 12, and 24 hours. Only the 24 hour event is the official US Rogaining Championships. See more details further down about award categories and eligibility requirements. What is a Rogaine? The concept is very straightforward—teams of two to five people have a fixed time (6, 12, or 24 hours in this event) to visit as many checkpoints as possible, walking, running or resting as they see fit. The checkpoints (controls) are spread over a large area, and are pre-marked on a map issued shortly before the start of the event. Point values for visiting each control vary (and are specified in advance) depending on such factors as the distance from the start/finish area, elevation, navigational complexity, and the whims of the course setter. The members of the team must stay together throughout the event, for reasons of safety. Who may participate? Participants in rogaining come from diverse backgrounds, including hikers, cross-country runners, trail runners, adventure racers, ultra-runners, orienteers, and family groups. Even at a championship event such as this, a wide variety of competitive intensity is found, varying from the casual stroller wanting to add some variety to the weekend hike to serious athletes expecting to vie for the top spots in their category, going with no sleep and at a running pace for most of the event.

    18TH RUSSIAN ROGAINING CHAMPIONSHIPS ZALESYE 2021 May 8-9, 2021, Vladimir and Yaroslavl regions Dear friends! It is great honor for us to host participants of the 18th Russian Rogaining Championships Zalesye 2021, and we are glad that for the first time the large rogaine enters to the territory of the Zalesye, the location with ancient historical roots and beautiful Russian nature. In 2021 Russia celebrates the 800th anniversary of the birth of Grand Duke Alexander Nevsky, a large number of events will be organized in the territory of Pereslavl-Zalessky, the city that is the birthplace of the Grand Duke. Such a significant event as the Russian Rogaining Championships in the territories of Vladimir and Yaroslavl regions is held for the first time. Therefore the team of the Genesis sports project and Nizhny Novgorod rogaine which organized the Russian Rogaining Championships 2017 in Nizhny Novgorod region and the Oka Trail project participate as the partners.

Participants will enjoy the diverse terrain and the high level of organization of the event. The participation of foreign athletes is planned, the Russian Championships have open status. As supporters will be prepared 8- and 4-hour formats of the rogaine, for a wide range of the participants who are not indifferent to the beauty of Russian nature, who want to touch the ancient history and culture of Zalesye. For the participants who want to broaden their horizons and to have a great weekend in the eve of the Championships, we elaborate with the institutions of Pereslavl-Zalessky the cultural program related to the nature and the history of the region.

  • Maps for Different Forms of Orienteering
    MAPS FOR DIFFERENT FORMS OF ORIENTEERING László Zentai Eötvös Loránd University, Pázmány Péter sétány 1/A H-1117 Budapest, Hungary [email protected] Abstract: Orienteering became a worldwide sport in the last 25-30 years. Orienteering maps are one of the very few types of maps that have the same specifications all over the world. Orienteering maps are special, because to make them suitable for orienteering the map makers have to be familiar not only with the map specifications, but also with the rules and traditions of the sport. The early period of orienteering maps was the age of homemade maps. Maps were made by orienteers using available tourist or topographic maps and only after the availability of cheaper reproduction techniques started the process of special field- working. The International Orienteering Federation (IOF) was formed in 1961. The Map Commission (MC) of the IOF has introduced different specifications for the official disciplines (before 2000 the ski-orienteering and foot-orienteering were the only official disciplines). The last version of the specification, the International Standard for Orienteering Maps (ISOM) was published in 2000 and included specifications for foot- orienteering, ski-orienteering, mountain-bike orienteering. A new format, the sprint competition, required new map specifications (ISSOM) which were finalized and published in 2007. The aim of orienteering map specifications is to provide rules that can accommodate many different types of terrain around the world and various forms of orienteering. We can use the experience of the official disciplines for developing new specifications: the official disciplines and formats were developed in the past 30 years (most of them are even newer).
