Just stumbled upon this thread from the newish Fractured Axel Facebook group. Haven’t viewed this forum or flown a kite in years and one of the first posts I see is one about my local flying venue.

I used to fly Cowbridge Common and arranged some Better Flying Days there. However it went very quiet and I was spending most of my free time in Pembrokeshire where we had a holiday home so the kites stayed down there. Sold that a few years back and now in first week of retirement so those kites may at last get chance to come out of the attic and take to the sky’s again. Bet I’m really rubbish now, I was never that good when I practiced all the time :D


I thought you left on some epic cycle ride,have you just got back?

Are there any fliers in South Wales area who meet up at any time. Used to be a few fliers on Cowbridge Common years ago, but that tailed off.


Funnily enough, I stumbled across a post last week about that topic....a twelve year-old post.
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=11524&p=124417#p124417

Must be a fair few quiet solo fliers about (such as myself) and a fair collection of kites gathering dust,I suspect.
