I was there in December, riding something a tad more modern (for the first time in a long time) thinking I would need all the speed and agility i could get.

I persevered with it until finally giving up, and trading it in at the surf shop in Mundaka. that was one well-travelled broken surfboard.<br /><br />You live and learn.<br /><br />— PatUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04741715665628670790noreply@blogger.com
