Some TV watching gymnastics will be required for Sunday evening (29th June 2008) when BBC Top Gear in Les Arcs goes up against Spain vs Germany in Euro 2008. BBC2, 8:00pm - 9:00pm Richard Hammond will race Speed Flyers François Bon and Antoine Montant from Arc 1950 to Villaroger.

Hammond is in a Audi RS6 Estate and to get from 1950 to Villaroger needs to come down to Bourg Saint Maurice at the bottom of the valley before heading on up the Tignes road to Villaroger. The Speed Flyers on skis and parapenting have a much more direct route.

A lot of people, myself included were experiencing login problems. This happened ages ago, and I haven't had time to investigate it until now. It was caused by an upgrade to PHP on this server and because I don't login here that often I didn't notice it at the time and make an immediate link between the two events. Anyway, I've just investigated it and I think it is now fixed. It is working for me anyway, let me know if it still isn't working for you. Cheers.

The British Surfing Association have launched a petition to demonstrate the strength of feeling amongst surfers that British Airways recent decision should be reversed. BA have decided not to continue carrying surfboards as well as hang gliders, windsurfing boards and sails, kayaks or canoes, pole vaults or javelins on their flights from the 6th November onwards.

Karen Walton, National Director, BSA, says, “If everyone who surfs could take five minutes to go online and follow our recommended action steps then we will have a real representation of the swell of support for the reversal of this absurd decision."

The BSA asks that supporters do their bit in the following ways:
1) Sign our online petition here
2) If you have a Facebook account, join the Facebook ‘British Airways Surfboard Ban’ group
3) Click this link to register a complaint with BA
4) Encourage all other surfers to follow these steps
