Recently, I spent some time in Canberra and while driving around one day noticed a couple of locals kiting the eastern basin of Lake Burly Griffin. Over the next few days I got to know these guys and found them really helpful and friendly. They even offered me use of their gear if I wanted to have a go. Most days, the wind comes in at about 15-20 knots and the lake has several launching areas, mostly on grass. Once again, guys, it was a pleasure to meet you, and I intend coming back there, and bring my gear!

PS In a previous post I couldn't upload photos, but found that the problem was with IE7 service pack 3, so I downloaded Safari, and guess what?! Problem solved!!
