Default Update on the Event/Race....2/11/2011..4:15 pm

We have come up with another idea about this Event/Race....It has been a concern on the "forums" that the winds might not be in favor for the Race...We think it will be, and here is why we believe this..We see that the "wind vector" is showing Side Shore, then turning to Side Onshore..It is not turning til later in the day, so We are going to do the 30 mile downwinder, then stop and regroup at S.B. I....We will then see if anyone wants to go the rest of the leg..i.e..30 to 60, finishing in Vero Beach like we planned for the Overall Race...We will stop ALL "Stop Watch" times at this point...

We feel if it takes everyone a long time to get downwind on Side or Side Onshore winds, then the 30 mile leg might feel like 60 miles...lol...We want this to be FUN and NOT a pain in your butts or legs, hint,hint,hint....

But, We will do the 30 to 60 if there are enough people to have it..We have 1st thur 10th Place Overall for 60..., 1st Place for Overall for "Over 45", and we have 1st Place for "1st Woman"...This means we would have to have at least 12 people or more to do the final leg of the Race...At that point and time, We would "Re-Start" your time from there, til the finish line in Vero Beach...

FYI..We would let everyone that is going to do the 30 to 60, (and have already signed up for it), to Change Kite Size's if need be, to finish the last of the Race.....Safely..
