The Rains Got Me Thinking...

This year, I have a few goals I'd like to achieve with hang-gliding...

1) Fly more comps...I'm signed up for Chelan XC Classic and Santa Cruz Flats, but am considering Big Springs, as well, if I can...

2) Fly 100 hours...I was able to eek out 89 hours in 2009 and think I can break 100 in 2010...

3) Fly more XC...I'd like to give the Owens Valley more effort this year and Lakeview, as well...

4) Fly more evening flights at Funston...some of my best flights have been in the evening after work at the Fort...

5) Fly Makapu'u...

6) Fly further than I did last year...36 miles will beat that, but 100 miles would be much nicer (see #3 above)...

7) Fly more and spend less time on bulletin boards...

8) Fly 5 new sites...

9) Fly more aerobatics...

10) Fly, fly, fly...

The common theme to everything above is "fly"...you get the idea.
