Bristol Nomads Windsurfing Club

Just about to set off to Germany - not on my bike, I hasten to add. 'Fraid I'll not make it. Nor the weekend in Pembs

Went round with Nigel and Martin Unable to walk today !!! LT I'm sure you enjoyed it really. TBH - I had to take the day off yesterday (Mon). Don't know if I caught something on Sun, but was suffering dizzyness & nausea. And that without any alcohol-fuelled assistance. Just to make you feel bet...

From the almost total absence of posts in this forum these days, I suspect this will fall upon deaf ears, but - if anyone fancies joining us - Nigel & I are going to Glyncorrwg on Sunday with the intention of doing Whites Level & The Wall (W2). Hoping to get there about 10:00 - 10:30 sun am....

Excellent photos & standard of sailing. V impressive.

BTW, DO remind me to be extra careful NOT to eat any safety pins.

I feel I will always need that kind of guidance.

First Windy World, now Rat RIgs.

A really sad indication of the state of windsurfing in the UK.

Good Luck with the online venture, Scott & Sian.

Sadly, I'm heading up north to visit parents

Good sail at WSM on Sat, followed by two wonderful rides: Sunday - Gorlech red trail with Adrian. Monday - Raven black trail with Huw & Adrian. Joy did the green trail - and enjoyed it! Great B&B in Brechfa (Glynfras), decent pub in Abergorlech (Black Lion). The Shed at the trail head does a...

About 3 weeks ago, apparently.

Another variant of Star Wars day is May 25th (co-incidentally also my birthday), as being the date in 1977 the original film was released! Unfortunately, my birthday preceded the film by more than 2 decades. As Matt said, I was at WSM on Saturday: 5.5m on 82l Quad was spot on for a while. After HW, ...

Bristol WIndsurfers World is no more. Rich has decided to call it a day & the shop is now closed.

Sadly, Bristol now has a grand total of zero windsurfing shops.

Good luck to you Rich; whatever you do next.

I'll be at WSM tomorrow (Sat) as long as the forecast stays looking good. HW @ 15:00 (9m), I believe.

Nigel may also be there.

We must have nicked LT's sunshine - especially after about 13:00. Arrived at HW to a long squall. I'd just started to rig 5.5m sail to go on the new Starboard Quad 82l. Sat out the squall only to find - as is normal after a squall - the wind had dropped a bit. Anyhow, I persisted with my choice and ...

It's looking good. Too much work, but one has to get one's priorities right. Hope to see you there. LT's clearly decided to take a day off from his light duties come what may.

Sorry - please don't rely on me being there and I take no responsibility for disappointments or consequential loss - physical or emotional. I'm trying to keep the day clear but it just may not happen
