I figured it was time to set the word censors up. Remember folks, families and kids read this stuff! ;)

Now even the liberals are censoring? What is this world coming to? (It's part of the war on TUR?) :mrgreen:

Guess we better eliminate the...

Bob the family speaks for it's self. Hope mine turns out as cool!!

Bob, you're a good parent of course! We just want to keep things reasonably clean here and maintain a good forum for all.

The icons can stay though... :drinkers:

I'm stoked to do the down winder this weekend.

I was just thinking how cool it would be to have an aerial photo of ~30 (I counted 35 last year) kites sailing in front of the GG bridge. For that matter, I guess a photo from the water would be cool too.

Do you have to register or can you organize your own transportation?

I know Jeff and Emily have a lot of expenses such as hiring a boat big enough to support if required (I've delivered checks in ziplocks to captains), plus one or two jet skis with fuel and drivers and of course the humongous deluxe bus for half a day, and this year the North Posse to boot!

The year the wind shut off from the outside and cleaved a dozen stragglers from the pack I was running the jet ski and plucked them all from the sea (and one from Angel Island) and deposited them on the support vessel no questions asked. Not all that I retireved was a familar face from the bus...It's not like a USCG where your tax dollars are supporting the effort.

Kite Wind Surf does it for the sheer fun and to help support the community and bring it together! =D>
Hopefully you will support KWS in kind.

In the past shuttle vans have been organized by groups from 3rd and SF to return to the west side of the Bay after the bus returns to Alameda so you might want to consider that as well.

As Z Grateful 1 is oft read commenting
Good Winds!
