“It’s late January in the Kerio Valley, and it’s another WORLD RECORD. Breaking two Out-and-Return distance records on one flight. Free flight, and to a declared turn point in Tandem.

Flying for 9 ½ hours covering a total 211km; with my main man Evans. Co-pilot, wind-spotter and legendary support man. Would not have been able to do it without him.”
