Very Windy Easter Since moving down to San Juan del Sur I have noticed a HUGE improvement in the quality and strength of the wind. The entire month of March has blown & blown. I estimate that the wind on the lake up at La Virgin would have been over 30kts everyday. Sadly, however, this great wind has been completely wasted on me as I haven't managed to get out- not even ONCE! The main obstacle has been my new family responsibilities, but also the main road to the lake has been dug up making the journey time too long. It's only 20kms, but would take about 45 minutes to get there. I have resigned myself to preserving my kit for next year, and have been skating a lot instead. I figure that as this is probably my last year skating I should make the most of it. See full details... This blog was created: Sun, 23 Mar 2008 21:59:00 +0000
Season Coming To A Close? Either the season will come late, or it will end without having ever really begun. Since my last post three weeks ago we've had three or four windy days, none of which I got out as, typically, they coincided with baby's doctor days, wife's birthday & car full day servicing. Looking on the bright side though, all my gear is as good as it was and will last another season. And, perhaps more importantly, if the season had been good I would have been an absentee father to my beautiful son. Also, thanks to the lack of wind I have managed to get a few more websites up and running. A blessing in disguise- I think not. But we have to do the best we can with the hand we are dealt. Still, I mustn't complain- just check out one of my local beaches: And in two weeks time we are moving to San Juan Del Sur, which is generally windier than here. I will soon be checking out the "La Virgin" spot. I've checked this spot out a number of times, and it seems to catch a good wind. Its a bit rocky in close, but the launch and land area is good and there are usually plenty of people around to assist. As you can see on the map, we are very close to Costa Rica's infamously windy Bahias Salinas! View Larger Map See full details... This blog was created: Thu, 21 Feb 2008 12:27:00 +0000
