Like all the teams, you set off from the secret rendezvous point with four balloons. You chose to buy no balloons from shop 1. By the time you got to shop 2 you decided to carry on with just the balloons you were carrying. Along the way you had 1 of your cargo popped, meaning you arrived back at base with 3 intact. Your race time ranked you 16 out of 36 teams which gave you a bonus 114 points and a total of 264 for the race overall.
