. . . you need a compass because you have to navigate. It is kinda like the bike leg on a AR race. My navigation and biker skills have been rusting lately so I signed up for some practice. Like to see more swampers there. Its only Orlando.

No gps allowed. They give you a map and a set of directions at the start of the race. You have to use a compass and your skill to find the checkpoints. I usually have a real good time at these events.
