every day. its never flat or windless. now thats what i call a sensible sport.

You're right Chris, and it keeps you fit which has to be a good thing.
I would join you in the hills but you tend to get a bit muddy and sweaty which isn't ideal when you have no proper washing facilities
at home!!
In fact, that's my excuse for getting a little unfit and a little fatter over the past few years... No real running water means I
haven't been able to go cylcing or running etc... Of course, getting married and having a son may have contributed a little too!

Weds-Thurs look do-able in the estuary at the moment... It even picked up for a while today, topping out out 21 knots at one point.
