| I'm good at barking orders ain't I ?… Under the circumstances I believe things went pretty well…..once Mike decided to settle down and lay over his boat, rest a while, then we could regain our composure. Great and I do emphasize great, that ol Bob was on an oc-1 today and riding sweep. Perhaps we should try and make that a configuration for future epic downwinders. oc's as rescue boats work very well indeed. Later paddling out to the coastes to let them know we had things under control I witnessed friendly acknowledgment, as they threw the 400 hp quick response craft in neutral. I was surprised and pleased to see how quickly they showed up..within 10 min. Exciting times on the Bay. \\ D | I'm good at barking orders ain't I ?… Under the circumstances I believe things went pretty well…..once Mike decided to settle down and lay over his boat, rest a while, then we could regain our composure.

| Another one bites the dust, update. On one of the last rides coming down from fragrance, over 6 weeks ago, I took a spill, banged my elbow and hip, got up and dusted myself off, no big deal. The two weeks later did the first weds night race and the next day I noticed my elbow had swollen up to a mushy balloon. Bursa filled with fluid. After continuing to the paddle in the waves it go worse. I tried to soak it which helped some then would go paddle and it would get pretty hard and bothered. Eventually went to the doc who drained it, put in some steroids and told me to lay off the paddling for a week to 10 days which means I'm missing all these nice wave reports. I tempted to go but the doc said it could become chronic and take a long time to heal. The mountain biking seems to have a higher risk reward ratio than kayaking. Falling out of the boats, even being rescued, seems more an injury to the ego compared to the potential of even a small spill. I hope to be back soon, hearing the reports are the worse part of the recovery. \\ DMow | Another one bites the dust, update.

| After reading these many posts over the past couple of weeks, I'm convinced that the the best way to win a surf ski race around here is to give mountain bikes to all of your competitors about a month before the race. However, as race director, I'm also worried that at this rate there won't be anybody left to race. If you do manage to keep the rubber side down over the next few weeks, the Dan Harris Challenge is ON for Sunday, April 26th, 10 am start, Boulevard Park. We'll have long course and a protected short course. | After reading these many posts over the past couple of weeks, I'm convinced that the the best way to win a surf ski race around here is to give mountain bikes to all of your competitors about a month before the race.
