A breezy weekend up here in bonnie Scotland... The annual Scottish 3 peaks race from Oban to Troon was abandoned yesterday after a few of the runners were getting blown over on the island of Mull, many runners were also unable to get back out to their yachts at Salen due to strong winds, I hear also one dinghy was run down by a multihull!!!! I think sense then prevailled and the race was abandoned!!

"runners blown over"

I've always thought those guys are too skinny.

look forward to reading some of the race reports.

Grief! I do have a chance then, since I am not aerodynamical I do not get blown away, shame is it takes a hell of a lot of wind or energy to get me moving!
