A rodeo ride to 100km with 4000m+

Warmer day with good xc prospects though the chance of some Congestus clouds spoiling the day for the less brave.  We may need to go to Lastra take off, and with the more south component may give us an opportunity to miss the Madrid TMA going between the Valladolid and Madrid Airspaces *see diagram.

What Happened.

lastra with reasonable take off condions though a bit stable early on then quickly to 4m/s+ thermals.  Best of the day Paul, with near 100km, followed by Luc, Geert and Anton.  Laurence also got a way.   They were eventually stopped from the 200km by a headwind.  One minute with glides of over 60km/hr, then low down a NE.

Late afternoon Cb over Gredos
