Friday 6th & Saturday 7th June |
It’s all gone bananas
A little break from the norm for the next couple of days with Friday taken up with moving gear around and filling in health & safety forms for what can only be described as one of the highlights for central London this year – yes it’s the Redbull Flugtag 2008.
If you are not familiar with this event its where teams, around 40 in total make a winged craft and then hurl themselves of a 6 meter platform / runway in an attempt to fly with the icy cold waters of the serpentine to cushion there blows.
We had an extra problem of being the teal selected to build our craft on the day – well I say day but 4hrs is the truth. The team was Mick, Dave & Larry on build – Dazza on paint and looking for chicks – JC on booze mostly and me as the pilot.
Here’s a few piccies for a taster – all I can say is this was just a fantastic day out – if you were there thanks for your support and cheers Redbull!
