I will be there either Saturday or Sunday. See you there nice and early! :D

joe:
So I guess we just meet at Nine Stones carpark. This is the carpark in front of the gate that leads up to the transmitter. Looks like this will be the slope we will fly if the forecast is right. They are saying north winds at the moment. Hope they are right, as the north is probably the best slope. I will aim to be up there from about 10:30am Saturday and Sunday morning

For those that don't know here are the directions.

Firstly head for Bunclody.
Coming from the north (Carlow direction): Take the right just before entering Bunclody town centre. Sign-posted Mt Leinster (handy I know!) stay on that road for about 10km until you see a left turn sign-posted for Mt Leinster (very handy again) this will take you around the side of the bowl and up to the carpark at "Nine Stones"

Coming from the south (Enniscorthy direction): head through Bunclody town centre and after take the left signed for Mt Leinster then follow the above directions





Follow the road marked in green.

So far, the weather is looking not too bad !
Fingers crossed !

Fred:
Weather update

So far, all looking not too bad !

Saturday big Northely wind  with possibilities of some small showers...Bring the heavy stuff ! And the N slope is certainly one of the best you can find ! Bring some plastic covers (canvas?) to be on the safe side if you have one...

Sunday, looks like a much better day, but lighter winds (Still Northerly  :D )
Bring some floaters, just in case, but the dynamic on the N slope is really good.

Sound like a good week end to me !  :D

I'll be at around 10.30 am in Kilmukridge to visit the campsite for next year Retroplane, if some of you want to join us to have a look...
Then, heading for the slope !  :D
