Millennium Cup
We've had good conditions the last couple days, with clouds forming above the mesa at ~12,000 msl. Everyone is flying fast in the favorable conditions and on Friday Brett came in first at goal, about a minute in front of Dustin. I made goal as well, about 45 minutes ahead of the next class B pilot.
The goal each day is Valle, and landing on the green grass in front of the Boga Boga Cafe is a pleasure. You can unhook, step out of your harness, and enjoy good food and friends as you watch the sunset.
On Saturday I get a late start and have to struggle a bit to get high but once up and on coarse the cloud streets show the way and I make the 37-km dogleg without getting low and make my final glide from the last turn point at 12,000'.
Going into the last day of the comp, Brett was leading Dustin by a couple of minutes (quite a bit for a 3-day meet). Both pushed hard and got low; Dustin managed to hang on and make a low save while Brett landed out. Dustin took the day and placed 1st for the meet.
