Wouter:

I somewhat know how you feel. When we raced Ruff Riders up the ditch in 81, I had a 90 mike beam reach. We did not tack once and could not cleat due to puffs. I could not even touch my head when we got though and took week to get back to normal. I agree a LOT of things can happen in 100 mile races. Just hope some of the better F-16 (Blades I hope) race to see how they do.
