leonardo - 10-4-2006 at 11:30

DUDES! Glad to hear all had a good sesh this past weekend. So who is where this weekend, on what side of the estaury or down Devon way?

Borth looking windier than woolacombe at the moh..

baileyman - 10-4-2006 at 11:36

I'm gonna head to Borth and hopefully park up at the Estuary.

Fancy a weekend in the pools to hone my "over the handlebars" skills !!

Al - Any thoughts on forecast? seems about F3-4 NW-SW everyday..

leonardo - 10-4-2006 at 11:45

Estaury sounds like a good idea..how about bring LOADS of wood!!!

justal - 10-4-2006 at 11:45

Too early to tell, but it isn't looking great at the mo.

Least if it isn't looking good at the moment it isn't building up our hopes.
Think I better think about putting my bike back together!

andy B - 10-4-2006 at 19:42

after such a rocking w/e iam gonna stay in the estury and walk over the dunes, its a 5min walk but you get the choice of flat water or waves.
praying for wind already as daz says its exciting!!!!!!!!!!!
oh ye and the walk keeps you fit init

AndyW - 11-4-2006 at 10:19

Anyone going to be around on Thursday 13th?

I think a session before Easter is due....

justal - 11-4-2006 at 11:16

Ummmm... You never know, I might be!!

AndyW - 11-4-2006 at 11:19

savage - 11-4-2006 at 12:26

i might try and get over thursday too.

darren byrne - 11-4-2006 at 12:31

5 days in Woolacombe wind or not!!! If theres no wind I'll surf, no surf, I'll kayak, failing that 5 days in the Red Barn (Pub)!!

Spooker - 11-4-2006 at 12:52

Probably be down on Thursday for a pre-easter taster - its looking the best day too at the moment

savage - 11-4-2006 at 13:06

Forcast I just looked at looks Awful

Who's bringing a mountain bike?

col123 - 11-4-2006 at 16:00

Darren i'm in woolacombe from monday, for about three days

darren byrne - 11-4-2006 at 16:08

Col - See you on the beach if the winds blowing, in the pub if its not.

Don't suppose you will have the Ocean Rodeo One with you or is Spooker still playing on it. I killed my 10m caution Saturday (its a write off) and am looking for a replacement, tempted to go bow!!

shem - 11-4-2006 at 16:23

Weekend looks awful as far as wind guru. 4 knots Easterly!!! Looks like we may have to make the most of thursday!!

badexcuseforasailor - 11-4-2006 at 16:29

Its got time to change (I hope) fingers crossed, toes crossed, everything crossed

Fart Boy - 11-4-2006 at 20:39

Wish I could join you Thursday but have a bunch of corporate boys decending for the day. Shame as the week end looks pants at the mo. Have Mon & Tues off though so fingers crossed.

Actually, I do, and I have to take Morgan to nursery and go to the doctors, so I might not get time.... Maybe a sneaky evening sessions though??

Al.

CharlieR - 12-4-2006 at 07:53

Trying to get down for the thursday, looks like the best day

Spooker - 12-4-2006 at 09:18

I'm off to Borth after lunch - hope to get some in this afternoon and Thursday before the wind drops completely - just in time for the weekend

Not sure yet whether it'll be golf course or Ynyslas - I'll keep an eye open for any other like-minded souls

MarkyP - 12-4-2006 at 10:51

I'm up Friday night, but won't hit the Borth side till Saturday.

If the winds cack I'll get the Phantom and MTB out for a spin.

If it's really cack I'll go mountain biking.

Gotta burn off some Easter egss somehow

NO WIND SUX

nick-r - 12-4-2006 at 12:18

leonardo - 12-4-2006 at 17:18
