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 …

Next Year In Corsica!!!
It’s really hard to believe that a few weeks ago I was certain I was going kayaking in Corsica. Â The trip that i have just returned from could not have ended up being further from what I expected. Â However, it was an awesome experience just the same.

Riding the tears of Everest.
