Manilla Again

Yesterday we drove from Bright to Manilla, it took 12 hours. You need AC for that drive. Today it was quite flyable, nice Cu, but it wasn't a 200 km day, so what is the point? (I'm joking).

We are staying at JJ's house and he wanted to go for a fly, so I drove him up the hill at about 3 pm. He challenged me to a race, to see who could get back to Manilla first, him on this Paraglider or me in his car - those are my kind of odds!

He climbed out right off launch and I even let him get high before I got back in his car. His van goes amazinlgy fast - it's a turbo diesel, and it even catches air! I soundly clobbered him, and his car should be ok (I hope).

The forecast looks like a switch to South early in the week, and that could mean some good air is on the way.

Stay Tuned...
