Well, it's June and that means it's time for another trip to the soaring paradise of La Motte du Caire. JB travelled down to Gap on the 5th to fly with his friend Wolfgang in his Duo Discus and Phil and I caught the midday ferry from Dover on the 11th, intending to stop enroute somewhere for a kip. We however had a pretty good run and ended up doing the 830miles from Dover with only a few fuel and tea stops arriving at La Motte at 3am just a little tired.
Tuesday 12th,
- Paperwork.............checked,
- Check flights........ checked,
And while Phil went off to Gap to have a French medical, (JAR class 2 €50) JB and I had a great couple of hours playing the local northwest facing ridges, landing at 21:00 with mega cheesy grins and a small taster of the epicness to come.
