Dales BOS Task 2 Tuesday 13th

It's Dodd fell again and this time it's too windy until 4pm when the deferred window opens for another race to anywhere. This time the goal is 40km.

For me a very frustrating 2 hours with broken lift which always seemed to fall apart as soon as you went over the top of the hill.

Tim King flies a blinder, leaving the hill at 300 feet and ridge soaring for the first 20km before thermalling to Kendal to win the day.

The Tuesday night meal and party was a huge blast, not only did we celebrate Trevor Birkbecks 80th birthday but we also got to see old friends in the form Derek Evans and Bob Bailey both of whom I first met at the tender age of 16.

Wednesday is blown out so it's prize giving time.
