After another great barbie prepared by Tony Dickison at the
Boat House (what a view!), a couple of our sponsors came for a show and tell on
Tuesday night. No one complains when Scott McCashin of Stoke Brewery wants to share
his craft beer with us, nor when Gelato Roma plies us with gelato – anyone for
a fourth serving?

Nicely ballasted up, Mt Murchison beckoned us on Wednesday
morning.
The wind was a gentle SW, and we knew we could expect a sea breeze to come in later in the day. Task was set to Howard Valley Rd with a 4km cylinder, then way up to Argyle Rd Jnc (10km) with end of speed and goal back at Tophouse.
Russell Read was the only pilot in goal, with the majority
of the field getting flushed by the sea breeze on the way through St Arnaud. We
had just the right amount of heart-stopping excitement with several pilots
getting very low, basically kicking treetops; but everyone managed to avoid the
trees.
We should have a few more NZ Personal Bests to talk about too.
