Alan went riding at 0600- he made a mistake with his watch and went and hour too early, he found this strange village in the middle of nowhere on a 45 km ride.
Back to the day.......
The girls went first, Jen had a poorish first race after a great start but came back with top 5 in the second race of the day. but is still in the top 20.
Sarah had a great 4th then a tricky second race in the 20's. Sarah's Maisheet shredded as she left the RIB to start a race but we had a spare. Sarah moved up to 49.
The 3rd girls race was abandoned at mark 2 with Jen in 8th and the blue fleet couldn't even start as it clouded over and the wind dropped to tiddly sqwat. Then after the AP over A a solid 15 kts filled in for a couple of hours!
The boys had a challenging day to in the unstable breeze, Dan had a late 20's and a 13-14. Robbie had a yellow flag on a general recall and 2 reasonable early 20's races.
Benno had a shocker of a start in the first race of the day but pulled through to a 20ish and then was 6th in the second race round the leeward gate but dropped to the ealry 20's on a fetchy thing to the finish.
David had a teen in race one of the day when the wind failed to shift back-is it persitent or will it shift back?, and in race 2 the wind died at the gate and David and Benno close reached to the finish David was inches away from a win and Benno got dumped to an early 20. All a bit mean really.
Robbie thinking about the shifts, is it persitent or will it shift back?
Watching a light wind start again
We are off for a Pizza and more news later
