| Flight details: | Started the day with an early rise 0440 to set off and meet Martin and drive up to Merthyr. We arrived around 0930 and met the others (nice meeting you all), after the brief set up and I was ready to launch at 1100 Started with a few beats of the ridge and then connected with my first thermal of the day. It wasn't to hard getting up and I followed a few people to begin with but was soon on my own so just headed east. Had a great day and managed a new personal best. Thanks to all who were involved |
