Not as big as Les Hemmes but IMO better quality.

But having said that, i dont need copious amounts of room to do what i do. The milage collectors will prefer the size of Les hemmes no doubt.

4.5 hours door to door so probably not much in it by time you actually go to either.

Ive a good feeling that Tuesdays winds will move into Monday and we will have more than shown currently.

Nice 18-20mph on the 8.5's should do it
