around the same time as the Jacarandas flower.....

I'm hoping today, but guessing 30th September.

Hey Reli when do the jacaranda's usually flower, and is there anyway to speed up the proccess with the right fertilizer or something.

fifteenth of september for east coast, remember you heard it from theDoctor first

Late August last year in Sydney I think last year, Col and I rode to Kurnell from Brighton and back. Cabron was testing the SB3's at Brighton. It was a great day approx 16-20 knots at Kurnell, and about 12 -18 at Brighton.

Not quite a true sea breeze but close enough for this time of the year.
6 kites out, knee to waist deep water, sun out all arvo and a good time had by all

wish the days will heat up i reeeaaallly want a summer kite at the beach!, i know the perth kiters expect their super-charged seabreezes at start around late september but what about newcastle on the east coast, when have they started in the past?

i vote the day i can ride again
