Best O club to join near Copenhagen?

[Slowtochide]

I'm about to start a 6 month+ stint working in Copenhagen. Although I will of course be working prodigiously hard for my new employer I do hope to get out and do a bit of orienteering at one time or another. So the big question is what club to join? Searches on the web seem to indicate that there is no O club actually based in Copenhagen (unless you count the Police Academy). The obvious choice then seems to be between Farum and Ballerup. Any comments, suggestions or other ideas from anyone out there?

How could you not want to join the Police Academy?

Meat Market was out there for a few months, will point him in this direction to give some tips when he returns from Portugal.

I went to Farum to see Queen of the South play FC Nordsjaelland in the Uefa Cup. Very enjoyable trip but my recollection of the journey was that Farum, despite its relative closeness to Copenhagen was a bugger to get to, relying on a train then a bus.

A bit of a tenuous recommendation, but a Danish orienteering friend tells me that his brother was a member of Ballerup when he studied in Copenhagen.

What has happened to Hillerod? (north of Copenhagen, centre for Spring Cup. - They used to have a good club with teams at Jukola and Tio-Mila.
