How to put this nicely – in a way that does not disqualify myself as a thoughtless bomber that failed to overpower this course demanding a different strategy – Frankly th...

Bergisch Land 16/06/2022

7^th 51^st

Bergisch Land disappointed me. There aren’t many golden age lay-outs in Germany, so you’d expect them to treasure such wealth. It’s sad to see a good layout go to waste d...
