Post by: BikerGran on February 28, 2008, 09:20:36 PM Just had a lovely long email from Lucy - don't get them very often cos they have problems getting on the net and it's very slow. Wifi is very poor apparently (cos of the mountains?) and even when they plug in their laptops at an internet cafe it's not good. Since lots of people on here like to make stuff, they might like to see Simon's home-made Wifi antenna - Clicky (http://www.kiteboard-europe-byvan.co.uk/post/wireless-internet-high-gain-wi-fi-antenna-version-2)
And for the less technical, I'm posting a link to their blog and gallery - I posted it elsewhere and Lucy says they've had loads of hits, I didn't realise so many people would be interested - Campervan blog (http://www.kiteboard-europe-byvan.co.uk/) Title: Re: Long and winding road.....

Title: Re: Long and winding road..... Post by: VALLEYSBOY on February 28, 2008, 11:23:50 PM looks like part of my leg !!
Title: Re: Long and winding road..... Post by: BikerGran on March 17, 2008, 01:10:31 AM Lucy and Simon finally had a day when there was neither too little nor too much wind for snowkiting!
Title: Re: Long and winding road..... Post by: Manky Monkey on March 18, 2008, 06:28:47 PM Cool! :D
