Condor

August 31st, 2007

Wednesday night’s race was full of little decisions. A couple of times I found heading at 90 degrees to course line was the secret to staying in the race.

A majority of the field had a hard time making goal after testing the bolts holding their wings on or venturing into Cumulous granitous. This reduced the number of people keen to send in their tracklogs. Speedy was also hard done by - his PC had a fit as he rounded the last turn point. It would have been a nail biter between Speed, Andrew and I if he had finished.

Great race
