Just see the update from Kelvin Newton's Web page:

http://www.knewt.com/lundy/lundyreport.htm

C.M. registered to the race, but was unable to go due to sudden working schedule. He must be very disappointed for missing the event.

Hi guys, do we have a similar island in HK ?
Holding a 2 days F3F plus camping ( of course, BBQ, lamb chop and beers) in Sep or Oct would be of fun.

Any view ?

Yes it is very bad that I cannot go. :x

Have been in Madison for a week. It is a very nice city here. Nice weather, nice scene and friendly people. The only thing bad is - there is no slope here! :twisted:

So our first choice for retirement is still PengHu. :lol:

塔門島有的機會！

不如秋冬時候入去搞番次比賽，三日兩晚，露營兼燒烤啦！

For many of us, 三日兩晚 seemed to be too much.

I suggest 2 days and one night. Say, from Saturday to Sunday. At least, no need for extra leave application.
Right?

:P :P

I agreed with Pong Pong, 2d1n is better.

There are too many tourist in Grass Island for holding a F3F race!

Pak Lap is good.
Many years ago, someone said the villagers are building houses for holiday makers ! anyone know more about this ?

白腊灣個場係幾好，但山上附近沒有露營地點，要返落山下到白腊村宿營，無咁方便。

其實塔門有幾個可飛和比賽的地點，附近又有草皮地可以露營，兩日一晚最好玩。可以星期六早上入去，星期日黃昏時回程。

塔門近個亭位有好多遊人不適宜比賽，但在島的南面有一個較直的斜坡，適合東至東南風，上次入去都係在這
