The day after yesterday



Today's forecast was for a slightly higher base and even less wind than yesterday. We all got excited about it, I was aiming for a 100K out and return but not long into the first climb I realised I was kidding myself. The day was definitely as good or better than yesterday, the air was sporty and I was so tired I was reacting to almost nothing. If you know Gary from Team America when he is 'making the signal', I felt pretty much like that.

I took a glide across the river and back to the nice green soccer fields. Lesson of the day, don't be too greedy. Or if you do plan on flying the day after a 7 hour flap, drink as much water as you can handle the night before and go to bed for 10 hours.
