I have no excuse, sheepishly yours from New Zealand (named after Zeeland, I believe...)

Oh by the way, just got an email from the club president who organises these wednesday races (he was also racing yesterday) that he clocked a race average of 26.8mph (43,2 km/h) (including 2 warm up laps). Wow, no wonder I was unable to follow that. He invited me to join the sundaymorning race also, which I probably be doing.

PS you spelled it correctly Zeeland, a southern province in the Netheralnds.
