Thursday 13th - A racing day

With a forecast for possible CuNbs and increasing wind the task is set to give a couple of long fast runs along the ridge and some short legs in the Tremp valley.  This is intended to make it a fast task and get a good proportion of the field in goal.
It works with more than half the field in.  I managed not to get drilled anywhere this time but was still 17 minutes behind Andy. Time to move the hang point forward and glide faster tomorrow.

Task 3 a short racing task to get plenty in goal and use the day before the forecast CuNbs
Its Ager again...now I'm up need to get back to the start gate
Climbing east of the gap en-route to TP1
TP1 done. On the way back plenty of landings this end of the valley
Going back to the Ager ridge over the valley of no return...
Sharing a climb over take off
TP2 and the west end gorge and lake
Going 'over the back'
Darnn the cloud wasn't working so back into wind to the gliders climbing over the small ridge
And the final TP back at the Castle De Mur
OOps the Atkinson's have a beer in Goal
