O' technique on my way to work?
I ride my bike to work most days and I pass through three orienteering maps. It seems like I ought to be able to come up with a way to get some O' technique training on my commute.
One possibility is to draw a few control circles on the map - along the route but not necessarily on the route - and catch a glimpse of each location as I pass. I could see how soon I could spot each control location. I've done that for technique training in the past and it seems useful (good at training to picture isovists) and is a good way to make use of an area that you know pretty well.
There must be some other (probably better) ways to get some O' technique training out of my daily commute. I'll have to give it some thought.
