Day 1

January 3rd, 2010

Damn iPhone just killed the writeup I had done for today so here’s the excutive summary…

A tough day out. A real hard first crosswind leg followed by a pretty easy run for 50k past the turnpoint. It then got tough again as we hit the flooded area towards Naromine.

I had three goes at different start gates but never really managed to get a good jump out of the box.

A slow trip around the course but I made it in after flying the final 30k with Kari from Finland. We ended up landing together near rhe town.

As for rhe rest of the Dustys, Andrew ended up 21km short of goal. Dave and Pete landed near the turnpoint near Trundle.

Tomorrow looks like fun and might even be a bit easier.
