Seems my days of doing the L2L are over, such a shame my second favourite event of the year seems to now always be destined to be on the same day as my favourite event of the year.

Perhaps this will be the year of the +25kt race day. And hopefully the year of my name coming out of the hat again.

And there was me hoping nearly everyone would miss this post and thus there would be fewer entrants!

I've applied, have done the last two so fingers crossed its three in a row!

101 entries received to date - two weeks in.

So, there are still 34 spots available! That said, they will all go....

This week I met with the amazing team at Fremantle Sailing Club - and I confirm that we will be their guests and enjoy having the Ballot Night at Fremantle Sailing Club at 6pm, with the bar open from 5pm. Bar style food will be available for purchase and I have no doubt a few complimentary Red Bulls will be on offer!

Set the date in your diary to catch up with your kite racing mates and enjoy a pre season cold one.

6pm. Fremantle Sailing Club. Friday 28th October.
