Bongo Fury

Ok - So I don't buggy or board ..... yet but I am trying to persuade Jill to take a trip to BLS sometime. Met up with the Racekites lot at Ainsdale last year icl Perry and enjoyed watching loads of "nutters" flying huge kites in strong winds (my 2M gave me a good spanking)

Sadly Jill has a load of diy lined up for me - consumer unit (sorry, I did not say that - did I?) Kitchen and Conservatory so I am not a happy Bunny

I will prevail sometime (I have tried to flog Silverdale but the kitchen arrives that weekend)

Is BLS any good for kitesurfing? Were not really set up for land now as we've sold most of land kiting stuff.

Mike I need to come visit my dad in Adlington sometime soon so will let you know and perhaps we could catch up, swing by Wheelquick for a browse of the pimpage and then on to Ainsdale. Keep up racking up the brownie points and your kiting karma will return

bls is really suited best for buggying but have seen some kite surfing on there. when the tide goes out it goes for miles.

Ah well sounds like BLS is out of us then. Will hopefully meet you all at another beach meet.

i didnt hear you say comsumer unit mike, im assuming your part p and 17th ed up to date. will have to meet up sometime, ive got a harness for you.

It is very nice but will cost you £53 all told. Now i saw something similar on the Flexifoil website made from a swivelling scaffold bracket. I will post the topic here but i don't know if you need to be a member to view it, here goes

I think that the trip to silverdale will be well worth the effort. You can check out our couplings(oooooeeerrrr) and i am hoping to convert some adventurous bongoliers too, the more experienced kiters the better.

Errrm - of course

It would be great to meet up again Perry, I should have more Brownie points than an entire pack of "Brownies" soon

anyone interested in getting together for a joint bongo/kite meeting sometime this year on a beach around the uk.
theres quite a few of us now and it would be good to meet up. ive been in contact with a few on racekites.com who would be interested.
i will be doing a few trips up to bolton le sands this year probably or i use fraizy beach nr brid often.
anyone else got a place in mind to meet up

I would be up for that mike - cant really suggest any beaches as the ones I use mostly require membership of the local club.
I am quite happy to travel though and by the sound of it,bls would be worth the trip.

i know dee, adam and carl from beaches around the coastline - small world indeed!

Count me in Mike, Have Bongo will travel.
Tony

If I'm free.... count us in

I will deffo be up for a kite meet.

I bought the Bongo so I could get out kiteing more.
Think I have spent more Bongoing at various northwest meets than kiteing.
Did get out to Norway but sadly no trip to this year as the ferry service has been cancelled!

Lets hope for better weather this year.
High winds = good kiteing. High winds = aaaargh how much can my AutoFreeTop take?

Happy New Year Mike .... and count us in - I need to fly a kite, actually I NEED to fly several
