Tail End.
Hi guy's and gal's, not great racing weather for the bird's. Or all of you waiting for them to come home. Knotted hankie's, BBQ, and a cool beer, are no doubt swopped for a bobble hat, firepit and a mug of soup. Hopefully, we will have some global warming for next week's race! Until then guy's and gal's, keep well, warm & safe. Bye for now
