The Boarders



The Uk comps have kicked off with the British Paragliding Cup in the scotish Boarders 60 keen pilots flew a 46km task from Broughton Heights to Hawick on Sunday with 16 pilots making the goal, the winner was Martin Sandwith.
I flew the task just to be sociable but made the mistake of flying in a teashirt and wind proof jacket and at about -10deg taking into account windchill I was a tad cold.
It was a grand flight with spectacular views from the east to west coast only marred by the £50 taxi fare back to Mikes car ,but a price worth paying for a very special flight
