How did you lift that lot up there Rushy?

Must be two or three of you.

And please tell me that's not a Volvo..

How many M/cylists will that mow down between there and its final
destination?

Has it had corrective work on the indicators (so they work opposite).

I'm surprised there are no blades fitted to the wheels

Ha, you seem to have missed the jousting pole stuck to the side for clearing the way of those infernal motorbikes,

BTW, not my car but yes for safetys sake it takes 3 to lift on/off, car owner, also 100 owner has had a cradle/roof rack built for upside down transport, it looks slightly less precarious!

Now there are a number of 100s now racing, how does it compare with the RS300 ?   The PY of the 100 makes it fractionally slower than the 300 ( 1005 vs 1000) but with that kite and broadly similiar design numbers, the 100  should be be quicker.   Shouldn't it ???

The Devoti D1 suggests a PY of 950.

Or is it all a bit too early ?

Gareth - that is good news. Sounds like you PYC boys are going to be
getting a useful leap forward with fleet growing there. I'm hoping to get
over there on the 15th all being well (on holiday week prior).

Given that you are 147 and TT is 107 where are the other 40 boats (yes,
even with my limited 'reedin, rightin and rithmitic' I can work that out !)

Cant think of any 'sailing snooker' names but it sounds a great sport and I
would love to have a go - I'm presuming it involves a fleet of
multicoloured 49ers sailing on a green sea all crashing into each other
and then sinking at the corner mark roundings - yes Ok I've lost the plot !

147 aka a "maximum" - I'd say there's a fair number of variants on "maximum" you could work through....
Feeling sorry for vegans since it became the latest fad to claim you are one
