A week ago I had the opportunity to fly a combination of ridge lift and thermals from Taylors cliffs down to Ferry Mead. Landing in a large paddock next to the Ferry rd round about. The conditions probably could have allowed for a longer XC but I was unfortunately running out of time. The best part was picking up a thermal right above Countdown and climbing 500ft while going straight down wind due to the strong drift. I look forward to trying to beat this soon.
