Saturday failed to make my 255km European record declared goal after spending too long getting round Birmingham airspace in a SW wind from Long Mynd. 7.5 hours in the air and a landing under even grey dead sky at 18:10. 215km straight line, 220 via one declared turnpoint at Banbury.
Following Sunday Ollie Chitty and I set a UK declared distance record of 218km from Bradwell Edge near my home and both made it. 5.5 hours in the air - arrived with the sea breeze, wind changed 180 about 15 minutes after we landed.
