Nene 14th March
« on: February 26, 2010, 01:51:00 PM »
Possible up and coming dates 14th or 21st March. Anyone interested?
It will provisionally be a non SCC trip and will require you look after yourself and have (or be able to blag) a 3*.
However if you chat up your local level 3 coach into attending its a different story!  ;D

Kev

Is that a typo ie 22nd not 12st

Turn up & blag, as long as you have £12, you're OK, however you may wish to ask your level3 coach to attend to help improve your paddling, he is rather good at that (creep, creep).

dunno, 22nd may be out, I may be oop north (Nigel, tyne/tees/swale 20/22 mar)

I am interested in this trip but do not know if I am good enough to handle it as I do not know what it involves. Are any other 2 star paddlers interested.

Lomo is taking over!

Yes Rich you'll be fine. Bring plenty of warm layers so you wont be put off by any swims but most of the course is less than a meter deep apart from in a couple of the pools so self rescues are easy! A good place for introduction to moving water, 3* is really not needed!

When the thread gave a date in May, Mark C and his son were interested. I suppose that it depends on his shifts.

I would be quite happy to drive.

Gordon, If I were to drive down to the Ringwood pool session on Saturday, were could load both boats up ready for the next day. Then I could take another 2 boats the next day.
