Warren,

It's feast or famine over here sometime. This time of the year we are waiting for strong cold fronts to come through. Just last week we had a few days where it was blowing 20 to 25 knots and then the next few days nothing more than 10 knots. Our are has one big advantage and that is we can ride on any wind direction.

If you need any assistance you are welcome to contact me at chris@tbkm.org
