Geoff writes: an epic (in the true sense of the word) sky, bang on at the Mynd, but – of course – far too windy for paragliders. Hang gliders flew all afternoon, and I was considering taking mine out in the morning, except at one point it started pouring here, and there were some very big clouds around. However, as forecast, the sky did clear, which was when it turned into a really good XC sky, and, but for the wind, it would have been a good day for PGs. In the end, though, I decided to opt for archery. Driving back home late afternoon over the Mynd, it was even windier, though at the time of writing this, about 8.00pm, I can see one PG flying.

That would have been myself or Nick flying the Mynd, we took off at 7:50, landed at 8:20, re-launched at 8:30 and landed at 9:00, it was strong on Take Off but not too bad once in the air as we managed a trip to Black Knoll and back.
well done, and much better than I did!
