Forecasts have been a bit all over the place recently and difficult to predict the good days. Funny though, I always think a good day may turn out less good, but never consider the reverse that a bad day might be much less bad and even good.Yesterday at Singlie we got the latter, and were rewarded with over an hour of surprisingly lifty conditions that let us have a right good explore of this new (for us) site.
A plan was hatched to do this ridge run the night before. Forecast suggested a fairly strong wind and I was taken aback at the amount of wind blowing up the valley at 8.30 am to the point of holding back for a while.
It was flyable at times at witchie. Chris was first up mid morning with his radio controlled toys then later in the air with his glider joined by Alex.
Arrived at Witchy around 3 pm to find Chris and Fred, Fred was packing up as he had an appointment, I could tell he was not fully commited to leaving but he had been flying.
Jamie kindly informed everyone on the ‘group’ that it was Wingbeat’s turn to host a Scottish Nationals round and it was time to watch the forecasts since there was an outside possibility that the weekend would come right.
