This is one of the best races i've been in so far, very tough if you are a thermal only pilot. A few pilots got caught out by taking wrong routes through the mountains.

I played it conservatively, spent a little more time initially gaining alt watching the others go ahead, & the routes they took. Stuck carefully to lanes of zero lift & managed to pop over a crucial pass that took me from 5th to 2nd behind AN. Thats the way it finished. Fantastic, nail biting stuff. WTG Condor team & AN for hosting this one.

Jep it was great experience. After some time I got overconfident and now I'm resting in piece(s) somewhere on route.
