| Comments | :: | An up-and-down day at Combe started out unconvincingly but eventually came good, with Tim G making Worthing beach (around 100k) on the tandem and a few others getting away for decent distances. Base 4000-4500'. I climbed out too early, making 4k, and arrived back at the hill too late - bugger. Still, lots of interesting (eg a bit rough) thermalling, fading out to buoyant soaring later in the day. Hill looking especially lovely after all this rain, bright yellow with buttercups. |
