hi, nice vid only your speed system is very cruely adjusted- let it run trough the D-ring! its better by accelerating

@crazysky01 Hi there, yes I didn't realise at the time, but the speed system was a mess. It worked, but it was a mess. I've got a new harness now and everything's where it's supposed to be. Now all I need to do is to get back to SA to try it out!

Looks great! I am going to Bulgaria in 12 days to learn... this is something I can see myself doing fr a while! Very good vid and classic sound track 5*

[TravellingLighter]

Bulgaria? Fantastic. Won't it be a bit cold though at this time of year? Hope you have(had?) a great time and post some videos of you!

P.S. Glad you like the video and soundtrack. Classic track indeed and the video inspires me every time! :-)

Heh! Thanks for the comments. Seems like a long time ago now. I need to get back there! Hermanus is just such a nice place - I loved seeing the whales in the bay. Amsterdam is a world apart! ;-)
