Some news from New Zealand

News posted by Anna Medvedeva – a captain of a Russian team:

At last the team is with its full complement – today we arrived to Christchurch. Members are still in limbo. As Michael Pershin (our current assistant) put it, `we are upside down here’.

Opposite side of Earth, jet lag in 10 hours. However – it is a kind of an advantage of the racing that one has no need to tune himself: 5-6 days non-stop racing will even such differences. We are in high spirits and are eager to start. Our assistants are getting used to right-hand drive.

BASK team sends you its best regards from New Zealand!
