Hi Rusta,

Sorry, no * spare * RACER T shirts left. Seems like a few people grabbed the wrong size, so next year your t shirt will be in a bag with your # on, to prevent any confusion!

And, race #.

Awesome race Tim and all that organised it.
Congratulations Johnno

It's a quiet night at work
I hope I got it right.

I didn't go as well as I had hoped but good enough to get a carton each off a couple of guys half my age, ya gotta be happy with that.

Start time was 2:30...
Do the substraction

Guys, what do these times translate to in actual race time? I'm assuming that the time is shown as actual time of day?
IE: what was the official start time?

You think Tighlines would have added times to the name since he had som much time available

I do have another nightshift tonight.

Nightshift sucks but waking up to green arrows is gold.

So obviously most people would be on surf and race boards.
I am just wondering if anyone was riding on a twintip and if so what place did you end up?

I rode a twinny, though it would be fine. Ended up 73rd which, considering I crashed eight times, dropped the kite twice and had to drag for the board on several crashes, was not too bad... I reckon I lost about more than 5 minutes in the crashes & crossed the line about a minute late so if you were super-fit (not me) and could keep your focus, perhaps not a bad choice, cold have been up in the top 40.

Fact was you could go plenty fast once it evened out (last 2km or so) but going downwind on a twinny is just too hard over long distances 'cos you ride it so flat and have to watch not to bury the nose (8 times )

All up though it was a great day, whatever you rode... Another big thanks to the organisers and all that took part and made it such a great day

Time to learn to ride a directional on downwinders....

Really enjoyed watching the L2L come over the horizon and into Leighton. Fantastic event, congrats to organisers and participants.
What if?
A Leighton to Lighthouse took place at the same time. Too much chaos mid way? Would be slightly more upwind and challenging. Timing mechanism already in place at each end. Ferries in place, great pub in place, probably good wind. Tell me I'm dreaming....

I'm sure everyone is interested in reviewing the YB tracking information, so, here it is!

Just checked out 2011 results
The top 23 place getters this year were equal to or better than last years 1st place time of 28:45

Although 2010 only seen 5 people under that time

There was bugger all wind last year.

However things are stepping up each year, I was 2 minutes quicker this year than last and dropped from 10th spot to 19th, you've obviously got to start getting serious if you want to stay competitive now days.

I also noticed that like you my speed picked up considerably in the last km or so, I wonder how much of that is because of the excitement of everyone starting to converge and race for the line or wether perhaps the wind did pick up a bit closer to shore?

once we reached the ships it almost flattened out .

Loud I think you will find he has video
