We had 5 hang gliders and around a dozen paragliders. Everyone got to soar, and I managed to squeeze in two flights.

My first flight was around 3:30, just after Neil took off. We cruised for about 45 minutes to an hour and we landed back on top. Twenty minutes later, I relaunched and flew for 1.5 hours, this time landing by the river.

The wind was too easterly, so nobody made it to the top hill. My highest altitude was 1700ft. What a day!

PS. Sorry Glenn, no photos this time - too far apart. Next time!

Yes, pieces of astroturf, same as at Oceanside.
