Board watching...


Just throwing a thought out here...

It's amusing to watch everyone sitting on the Today's Posts page waiting for a new post to read/reply to :wee:

Had lots of little errands during the day. All in town, all PITA, but all necessary. And it is almost time to feed the wild wee ones, soooooo...... I see your 50 and call. ;-)

It was a long drive for a short amount of riding, but man it was a great ride. Totally worth it for me, but it was a very long amount of time in the car for only 3 hrs of riding...

I was on the 11m TD2. I'll bring the BFK to the Buggy Bash for ya... Havent flown it in quite some time. If you want it sooner, please let me know and I can mail it to ya... Thanks for the loaner though!

Yeah, I'm not on nearly as much as it appears. I use Firefox with my homepage actually set to multiple tabs and PKF is a tab that opens automatically if I open a browser. So unless I close the PKF tab, I'm showing as on if a browser is open on 4 different computers.

That hurts.
Last week I saw lots of posts on a local forum about folks going kitesurfing about an hour from my house. Problem was I didnt get home from work until after 5pm. I figured it wouldnt be worth the trip... The next day I read tons of posts about how much fun they had... Bad call on my part! Lesson Learned!

Sure BB.
We know you are a PKF addict :ninja: and cant get off the forum unless there is wind. The only reason you do get off is to go kiting, so you can talk about what you did when you get back on the forum. RIGHT?:spin::spin:

Well if its not exactly true then thats ok, but thats how a lot of us are. ;-)

Well I just got back from training and checking the wind... BRB in a bit. I'm out the door to the beach to fly the rest of the afternoon! It's been a tough week down here at VA Beach but somebody has to do it! :smilegrin:

Oh yeah, no lifeguards and on shore blowing 13-15 :bouncing:
