British Records tumble.

In an incredible spell of weather in the UK, 14 British Records have been broken in the last month.


On 26th April, Richard Westgate (Gradient XC3) and Mike Cavanagh (Ozone Mantra M4) broke the UK (Local) Distance around a Triangular Course record with an epic 90km flight from Ben Toaig in Scotland. Mike completed the task in 4hrs 8mins and Richard in 4hrs 22mins. They will share the record. The flights score 338 points in the UK XC League, the highest individual scores ever recorded.
