What a great day. All the words in the world can't do justice to the table below that shows that of the eight rounds the slowest was won by a 33.86.
La Muela was the only flying I've done this year and it was great to get together with lots of old chums. I really need to get out more. The flying was interesting... I could fly a neat 100m course, or I could fly fast, but doing both was proving a challenge! In a bizarre way it was really nice to not do well because I was out of practice and a bit crap with only myself to blame.
The standard of flying was the best I have seen outside of a Eurotour event. All of the British team were very impressive, as were many others.
