Yesterday we had two races. The first one day long distance race of the season from Issoudun almost 600 km and a program race from Pont St Maxcence around 325 km. The wind was one again strong from the North East and our result was okay but hopefully better next week!  Maybe some west in the wind next week would be welcome?
