the 250 racers were out in force this morning. Mike Bates from Truro dropped in and did very well on his first time on an actual course, getting through the gate several times.

I think that is mostly Craig that I am seeing although Geoff is likely in there somewhere too.

Nice to meet you Mike and great flying on your part.

It was a great day!
