cobus3000 Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 What does rule 5 and 9 entail? Maybe I should apply them as well
Mads Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 (edited) To be honest I lack distance at the moment. So in my mind on a perfect day with no wind I think I would just have made it. .... With wind ...... Not so sure. But I cant get myself to NOT go and try..... Edit : Don't know the rules but it going to be blood, sweat and tears..... Edited October 16, 2013 by Mads Wannabe 1

DJR Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 Ek was ook lus om kop uit te trek, maar nou is ons akkomodasie klaar betaal, so ons sal maar kom ry. Ek doen dit in elk geval net vir die oefening en ry saam met die E groep.I've told my mates I'm doing it, so, now there's no backing out without losing face! Breezer 1

'Dale Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 You realize that the forecast is in knots.......meaning 35 - 60 km/h. Eina! No, man.This IS km/h. :-)
DJR Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 No, man.This IS km/h. :-) Pheeew, then it's better than last I looked at Windguru.
Donovan Le Cok Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Very varied wind reports depending on what site you look at. Oh well nothing we can do about it. It will be the same for everyone. iteachcoffee 1
