We've had a message from our Fed Secretary today, they are going go make a decision tomorrow, but it looks likely that we will be going Sunday !!!
Sunday looks strong winds again on the north road for the ybs facing another south west I think that’s 4. So far
33mph gusts in places this time

Well done mate
Mine only had 3 races not gone past 110
This week we are back at 83 so really could do with a bit more experience
I like to have 4 races 5 if possible
I didn’t send last week I had the hunp with the fed dropping / changing to 50 miles again for no real reason so I gave them 2 30 mile tosses myself but another one off tje lorry would be nice
Well done on your yb season
Always difficult to know exactly when to stop them, 4 or 5 races I think is about right if you can get them. Good luck for the weekend.
