Kagel to Glendora flight, 33 miles

I landed almost at the same spot as last year and repeat my mistake again. Its essential to get as high as possible over Monrovia Peak before gliding over relatively low terrain eastbound. This time I try to push low as far as I can because I know there was quite a few good landings down wind, but generally speaking it was bad idea, punchy thermals, windy, no fun. I landed near Glendora Equestrian Park:
 Jonathan, Bud Rob and Seabass landed few miles east on San Dimas Golf Course, well HG has better glide, so no surprise, but they made basically the same mistake. Only Ron who take time to get high over Monrovia Peak was able to make Rancho Cucamonga.
