| Watched Paul on his 3rd solo then my MUM who is 60 next month took her 1st tandem flight. She had a ball and was grinning ear to ear at the bottom. I launched straight after and flew around with her which was pretty cool. |

| East Lake home via paragliding park to see what the craic was. Pushed hard for 2nd part of journey. Got a suprise going up my steep hill. Some guy on a sit up and beg bike started up before me so figuring I'd catch up pronto and pass easily I set off. Couldn't catch up and only on the short flat part did I make any progress. On the 30% grade he was just sitting there pedalling away while I was in full sprint - turns out it was a damn electric bike! |

| Front launch in light wind from upper N. Got a nice thermal up to 2500 straight off the bat. Then took a nasty collapse not flying actively which sent me into a spin - somewhat disconcerting!! Got out of dodge and regained composure before thermalling up to 3000ft. Had stuff to do so had to come down which was a shame since I could have flown for several hours today. Wierd S landing since it was N up top. |
