Thanks to quite a bit of rain here in southern Germany within the last weeks water levels are rising and I’m enjoying it a lot! It was therefore time to take my new Shiva out for a couple of more sessions on some of our classic runs in the Alps. The photos of the action pro …

160 Mile Yorkshire Jaunt

Myself and Jason Raper recently succeeded in completing a full decent of the River Ure, 160 miles. I can only assume the list of people to achieve this is fairly short and it was not high on our list of things to do. Unfortunately the tragic loss of a friend whilst kayaking on New Years …

Scotland is always unpredictable when it comes to weather, and at easter it lived up to its reputation. The trip started driving north in the sunshine, stopping off at Glasgow for an epic kebab en route.

Three of us who are (hopefully) graduating this year are heading …

Scotland 2012

We took all but one of our Pyranha fleet to deepest darkest Scotland this Easter. With only one day of rain all week levels could have been better  but then again we’re pretty well practised in running things on the low side after two dry winters! Levels aside, we had a brilliant time taking on …
