This is getting old, even for me.
I am pretty patient and use to seeing forecasts fall apart, but this is just getting lame.

Last night NOAA was saying pretty good wind, today it got shut down.
Rest of the week looks weak as well.
A few days ago they were saying solid 20 for 48 hours straight.

Oh well, this reminds me of what is was like most of the time prior to the last 2 seasons.

At least I got to ride Saturday a.m. for a solid hour in good wind and Tom has a tree.

so does that mean you are backing down form the light wind challenge (HT vs Roo)?

I've got some stuff to get done today.
If it stays at 0 knots (well 3 from the South) yes, I will most likely not go out.

If it picks up to 8, I might consider it.
If it hits 12 (from some northerly component), I will most likely go.
Sad conversation, considering it's December and today is a cold front.

I know I have. :?
I am getting better at swinging from trees and riding my bike, though.

Well, I DID go to Stacey's Country Buffet for dinner last night, maybe I could provide some good 'ol home made country wind for y'all...it might be a bit gusty though...

If you've got a trainer kite you might want to use that...anything else will just be too much kite. Just remember to hold your breath when the gust hits!!!
