Default Governor's Cup - Brandy Soaring in lead ... SGS 1-26 has fastesthandicapped speed (USA)

Thanks KK, suspicion confirmed. U Momma AKA "The Scoundrel" was to blame.
Ouch... Haven't contacted Dave in a while, but had threatened him in the past with access to flying sailplanes in California. Perhaps if he read Pez cartoons and saw how great it is on Doon?
P3, put me on the escape committee.

Yes, "Pudknockers" was the term Dave Michaud ("U MOMMA") used to call ACA pilots back in the 80's when he was a regular visitor flying out of Blairstown.

Dave Michaud left soaring and became a road bike racer ... which made sense as a bicycle was a machine he could handle.

Sad to say that Michaud has proven yet again that he can't handle a bike either. Another broken rib as of yesterday. Any of you Michaud fans contact me offline and we'll see if we can get him back into gliding where it's safer. He keeps threatening a comeback, so maybe a little peer pressure is all it takes. We certainly could use the entertainment.
