Day 2 – the wash up

January 4th, 2010

What a day! So much fun it was almost like we were flying at Forbes. The day started off topping out at 5500ft through to the turnpoint at Carabal. After that thing got real fun with base lifting to 9000ft. Fun.

For such a big day, almost 200km, it was a pretty easy day. All our team made it in to goal. Out of us Peter won the day with Dave, Barnsie and I all coming in with similar placings.

Over all it looks like Jonny won the day with Zippy (Zac Majors) in second and Attila third.

All up there would have been about 50 pilots in goal. Awesome for such a long task.

The pic is of Dave landing at goal.
