Our team of deaf and blind are ready to visit beautiful Chiang Mai again this year. All the regulars are back with the exception of Terry Williams who has had surgery to remove a melanoma. I'm sure we all wish him a speedy recovery.
Looking forward to laughs and smile and beers with all the competitors and supporters.
