This trip has been cancelled owing to low water levels and lack of rain forecast before Sunday.
A new trip is being organised for Sunday 1st. November. Please sign up if you would like to join this one.
After the 11th October's quiet WW trip we decided to give you all a bit more notice to plan your weekends. This white water trip could be Devon or Wales. We'll aim for something G2ish' possibly the Usk and make a final decision based on river levels and group's ability/size. It could be cold/warm/dry/wet. Meet at the club to leave by 08.00 - as we are getting less daylight and we like to have a 50% safety margin on the water.
On average it's about a 2:15 drive. Often with longer shuttles run on a very narrow tractor filled roads. We probably won't be home much before 19:00.
Please register if you intend to come, it has car details and if driving how many boats you can carry, plus emergency contact details that make it a little easier for the organisers.
What to bring - the usual stuff but not forgetting- Warm paddling kit, it could be cold? A hot drink could be a must have - an unbreakable flask (attached) in the back of your boat. Food - high energy food is best (flapjacks/Mars bars/banana etc. are good) Dry warm clothes to get changed into post paddle.
A home made stick of rock for the organiser.
Transport We share the cost of the fuel (220+ miles so could be around £30-£50 per car) and possibly the bridge toll. Organiser Jon
