Several of us went out to Bridge Field for the first fun fly of the year. It was chilly and a bit gusty in the morning but the cloud cleared later and it was pleasant in the sunshine.<\/p>\n
Spent an hour or so warming up with the Oke Stiks before the serious matter of racing started. We set up a triangular course of 3oom and a group decision was to race together. Michael, Gary and Rob set off on the first run. It was a bit crazy as we were cutting corners and having to go back around again. The lead changed hands a couple of times but Michael came out the winner in all 3 races. Gary and Rob were each runners up in the others. We were amazed at lap times of less than 20 seconds.<\/p>\n
It was a great experience to be part of and touch and go with the models seemingly feet apart at times. We were all more at home at anti-clockwise racing and battled at one attempt at clockwise.<\/p>\n
Michael brought out a foamy trainer and buddy system. Little Orlando had his first lessons on this set up and was so excited. We had a great day.<\/p>\n
Thanks to all of you that made the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
