Gary and I tried dickey's ridge today. It was sunny as we set up but then turned full overcast by the time we were ready for launch. Winds were light. I managed to scratch to 200 over briefly for a twenty minute flight. Gary scratched for a short extendo. After we landed two paragliders soared the ridge for most of an hour. A little cold but still a good day. Missed you Steve.

Steve, it wasn't so cold as 2 weeks ago.
It do was overcast and we were surprised we could stay up so long (+300feet). The were few cars so the park was almost empty.
Finally the wind died and we went playing Disc Golf near Winchester.
Daniel I hope you progress in 2006 a lot so you can join us here.
Dickies is really the nicest site we have I believe.
So my 2005 US Flying season ends here. Next weeks you will get some South America stuff to warm up.

Re: Dickies
I'm making progress: 2nd mountain flight today, 8 more training hill flights last week off an earthen damn in Denver. The new wing, an Ozone Buzz, on order. Thanks for the kind words. I'm looking forward to flying with you soon!tomceunen wrote:Daniel I hope you progress in 2006 a lot so you can join us here.
Sorry we'll miss you at the x-mas party, but best of luck in Chile! Looking forward to reading about your adventures there.tomceunen wrote: So my 2005 US Flying season ends here. Next weeks you will get some South America stuff to warm up.
