Surfing on Cleeve Hill

Just had a pretty good session a mile from my house which makes a change. Its blowing 20-25 mph here so a quick trip up Cleeve Hill was called for.
I have to say, anyone who regularly flys/rides inland has my full admiration! its gusty as hell, but then if you can ride inland, you can ride anywhere!!
I didnt dare hook the harness in, and had to give up after 2.5 hours as my hands refused to grip the boom anymore.
Great fun riding up and down hill though. Putting extra power on to go up hill is a real buzz! Had to watch out for the sheep, as I never knew which way they will run when they realise you are coming. (ooer! perhaps I shouldnt have typed that!)
No speed records, but real fun!!
