It felt like months ago that I had a go. Probably was, way too busy. I'm making crazy hours. Anyway, just took off this afternoon. Initially it looked good, so I took a 5.2. Hard to get out, and crossing the channel was a bit of a challenge especially with a big ferry approaching. But once North I sped South at great speed. But that was the last bit of wind for quite a while. In the end I decided to go home. But while packing it seemed the wind was picking up again. This time I took the 6.2, and indeed for a while the wind was good, almost too much. But didn't last long. Again quiet period, and then some more wind. Just not consistent enough to be great. | ||
