Strong winds over night disappeared by the morning, disappointing. Went for the freeride option. Nice and sunny but cold air temp.

Had one good run. Really tired after yesterday but was liucky and in the right place for the squall that came through. Hopefully todays 500m is faster than yesterdays.

Cant believe I had a 33.55 peak with such a big sail and board and fin combo. Think I learnt a lot yesterday that paid off today.

Weymouth Speed Week...day 4.  Gusty WNW wind.  Certainly a chill in the air today!

Cant work out why I dont get a better 500m for today, I have 29.999 over 600m and defintely went through the gates right. Learnt a lot more that will help on this though, which I guess counts more. I miss sailing with you lot out on the water more than anything, and going for a mile, then an alpha and a run etc......much more fun doing this.

If you are sailing an arc Lea then between the bouys you maybe doing more than 500 m so therefore you are going slower than your software if not take it up with the committee and find out why.

Oh by the way Gt31 didn't have any luck with it left it with Pete with mine in more bits than i think that it takes to make one.

And last but not least the on going joke that really has lost its taste isn't going down to well and a few people have had enough the odd ribbing is fine but total humiliation of someone online is wrong and then just ripping the sh!t everyday has its limits of patience. Especially when i have been chatting to this individual and they have expressed how it has pi$$ed them off and they do not want to post anymore what a lose that would be to all especially on the dark winter nights we have coming up...........

Cheers Normski. not good enough though to up my 500m today. Learnt a hell of a lot this past two days, most of which means I am pretty crap at this! Will stick to writing about it I think.

 

Biggest congrats go to El Reg for Speed week!!!! Jim and Si P did really well yesterday but didnt see them today, Camel moved up the ranking by 4 spots today as well!!! Well done on that with the direction. I need to write a bit about it all over the next couple of days, dont think there will be enough to sail tomorrow with my kit

Swagger, he apologised on that forum and deleted all posts that he could, it was genuine and sincere. It looks like he regrets it a lot as he hasnt posted again.
