Good time, November 2nd Sunday @ North Wildwood

November 3rd, 2008 by Brian

Lucky ones: Brian, Don, Jesse, Joe and Joey (LBJ’s son)

I dare to say that it was one of the best sessions at Wildwood.  Wind stayed above 25mph all the time, direction was NE, perfect for North Wildwood.

We started 1 ish pm Sunday.  I pulled out my 2.5M Rage, Don and Jesse, 2M Beamer and Joe something less than 2M kite.  Wind was strong and steady enough for me to ride on soft sand.  It was like buggy offroad, fun fun fun.

Later, we hooked up Don’s buggy to my buggy for Joey’s tandom ride.  He said it was his first time buggy ride.  I can say that we gave him a good first impression :)

Thanks to Jesse, LBJ and I tried a blowcart and I WANT ONE!!!  Only if I can convince Jennie…

Thanks all for taking care of my dog, Jake while I was riding.  He is a trooper, I have to say.  Most of time, he was running around on the beach, chasing kites but yet refused to rest.  I was so tired that I had to wake him up this morning for his bathroom break :)

Thanks LBJ for pretzels.   Good stuff, always.

For those of you who didn’t make it, sorry you guys missed a great session.  Don and Joe took some pictures and videos.  Hope to see some of them here to prove how much fun we had.

Good time, Oct 12th Sunday

Man~ the more I do it, the more I want it!

Great time indeed.  Barnes, Mike and I got there 2nd street @ around 9 am.  Within 30 min, wind started to “fill” in.  LBJ showed up soon, then Luke and his brother Andy.  Then Don and later, Greg.

I was flying Don’s Neo 11M pretty much all day.  Later I tried Montana IV 7M.  Good kite.  Other rode with 5M size buggy kites.

Wind was about 13mph @ peak I think then lower later afternoon.  We all packed up @ around 5 pm.  Thank goodness for Luke’s sun block cream :)

At the end, Greg, LBJ, Mike, Barnes and I stopped by @ Sonic for greasy buggers.  Yummi!  Perfect way to end a great buggy day (at least for me :)

I just realized that there are some last comments on previous meeting post.  Sorry that I couldn’t respond on time.  I will make sure to update on our future gathering posts regarding when, where and who.

Anybody took some pictures?  I know LBJ did some video.  Hope his camera had a memory card in :)
