Here we go again! Team GB is
heading off on Tuesday to the Hang Gliding Pre Worlds 2013 for Class 1 Womens,
Class 2 and Class 5 which kick off in Annecy, France on the 6th July.
The Class 5 team is:
Neil "Bomber" Atkinson
Andy Hollidge.
Luke Nichol
Ben Philpott (Team Manager non-flying)
All the pilots have been stepping up
their game this year with veterans Neil and Andy showing a re-ignited hunger to
prove themselves on the international stage while young hot-shot Luke has
put himself in the spotlight due to some very credible performances in the
British Open Series and UK Cross Country League
(www.uknxcl.co.uk).With lessons learnt from the Class 1 2013 Worlds
in Australia, I hope, as their Team Manager, to be able to add some extra
support to the team. As the famous saying goes "I have a cunning
plan!"
There is also the Womens Class 1
competition running alongside with Kathleen Rigg flying under the GB flag.
After her stellar "Bronze" performance at the Worlds in Australia,
Kath is sure to make her mark.
More updates and pictures will follow shortly, but I
thought I would get this up to let you know the new blog address:
