Day 7 - Task 6
Wake up and smell the coffee. It’s the last day and the Brits are cooking on gas!
The islands are growing already. They are like little volcanoes in a sea of blue or the chocolate ice cream that Mr Whippy had last night surrounded by Blueberry sauce and just to make it lifelike, he put a serviette on top much to the delight of 3 Arrows. Bless.
The task is 77km via 2 turn points. STOP! 3 Arrows nearly didn’t get started due to him leaving a batten in the orange grove *tears* so its was all hands to the deck to make one out of what was laying around. In true team fashion we ate aluminium and produced an almost perfect copy – 3 Arrows was a happy man and ready for battle.
The task gets going and we go round in left circles this time. The late starters follow and pimp off the leaders to catch up and make good times. There are no lead points. It’s a quick race and Paris Williams did 77km in 1hr46 with Mr Whippy 2 mins behind. Paris has been out of flying for a couple of years and is still finding his legs. All I can say is watch out when he finds them!
The day is under called but it’s a good day as most get into goal.
Results
77km
1 Paris Williams
2 Mr Whippy
4 3 Arrows
5 What’s a tent?
6 Happy-sad-happy lad
10 Posh Bloke
17 Dogleg Fred
We got back to The Ridge for prize giving and lots of pizza and salad with beer of course!
