Most excellent. I just entered that information into my ever so detailed wind predictor equation (see below). I think we are ready to go. ;)











Odds of having a kiteable day predictor equation

Runner Kevin is in town and is on his way to launch site < 5%
Runner Kevin is out of town, no chance in HELL of him showing up > 95%

OMG You crack me up Scott! Please keep me informed of when Kevin is out of town, I will be geared up and ready to fly! HEHE

Hitting the Skyway Bridge at 5-5:30 for some NE WIND!

WOO HOO!!! Hope to see you there...

Philthy,

Wait til it fills is in my advice. Don't drive expecting it to fill in today.
I could be wrong.... but still. If you don't mind (or enjoy the idea) of riding at night, we will be riding until 11pm at Lassing, so no rush.

That is so funny..... But don't get too excited for tonight. I don't leave until tomorrow and I might try night riding for the 1st time tonight..... therefore low chance of wind........ heeheehee

Skyway Scott 09-17-2007 02:24 PM

I was wondering why the H@#$ nothing was going to happen today, despite all the forecasts saying wind.
Only reinforces how accurate my formula actually is!! :)

Damn, Bayflite talked the Ocean Rodeo guys into hitting Lassing tonight, too. Odds of wind are low, low, low.
Odds look better tomorrow. :)

You may be right but you may be wrong! haha Hey... who sang that song anyway? Little Trivia?

Ok, so you got me thinking I should show up at Lassing tonight... hmmm... I got 12 glow sticks in my car, a coca cola and a candy bar!!! Should be good to go til dawn...

bayflite 09-17-2007 02:57 PM
