The Task was set as 203kms NHL - Blandford - The Park - Cullompton - NHL.
230's trace
"Hard slog today with variable thermals, none particularly strong or reached cloudbase. Getting back across the Bridgwater/Lyme Bay gap was particlarly difficult as it blued out so was never sure where the sea air was, took a big diversion off track to go South of Yeovilton. A couple of fortuitous climbs got me from one landout option to the next and eventually home." - Pete Startup 230
"A tricky day in the West country. Pete and I declared 200K which he did very well to complete. The return to NHL was entirely blue. We picked one too many old wisps and started the iron thermal just short of Merryfield on the way back. Hard work, Well done Pete!" - Phil Morrison & Nick Jones DD3
