Avila and back for 100km O&R, and 200km+ for Pepe

An epic day with strong convergence in Ambles.  Great Cus and light W winds.  Perfect soaring conditions, though it got pretty turbulent in the convergence with 6m/s + climbs.  Many made it back.    Pepe Maleki apparently went on and was at Segovia at 4pm, and made a little over the 200km.  Today is flyable but windier from the W and a potential 300km day.  Many pilots are going back today, some after landing and maybe 300km nearer their homes.
