The Team spilt up on the 10th August. Tony and Riaan headed South with Pavel from Nirvana (who placed 2nd in the PF1)and the rest of the team headed for some R&R in Prague. Riaan and I (tony) were driven to Zlin to visit the Nirvana factory and discuss business, this was rather hectic and we managed to assist in the design of some new product that will be coming to the market in about 24 months from now. Then we caught a train to Prague and even though we were in the same town as our team mates we were just too far apart to meet up before our next train via Austria to Zurich. This was a long trip and we managed to have a sleeping car so got a bad night sleep and arrived while the town was sleeping. Then after some walk abouts got back on a train to Luzern. A very nice place to visit. then again later the day to our hosts house in Egliswil (www.egliswil.ch)
More traveling then home on Sunday some time. Thanks everyone for supporting the SA team while we were out Flying we tried hard and did will in some sectors and others we blew it. One thing for the future i have to remember not to hold back as i tend to make mistakes then. Next comp full speed ahead.
