Some people reckon that the West coast of North America is the best kayaking road trip you can do, but for me the best bang for your buck is the European tour- starting in Corsica, working up through Slovenia, Italy and France to the mecca of Norway. 

My season began in Corsica in April, through to Slovenia and France in May and June before arriving in Norway in July. Happy days!

Norway is definately one of the most incredible countries on earth, awesome whitewater in a wilderness environment. This year we didn’t make it up to the Arctic circle, but we saw some beautiful places all the same.

Summer of work work work, busy learning how to mend people. Loads of fun but can’t wait now to get out on the river. Have been doing rather too much of this…

Now off to Norway to catch the last part of the season and do some of this…

Then slog it out at the beer festival in Munich and look like this…!

Ive just got back from a fantastic trip to British Columbia with the boys from Fat Cats Productions. What a adventure, amazing water, scetchy information, cashed cars and  the odd angry local. Off to help out with the National youth Series here in the UK this weekend as I’m not confident in Jamie’s water. We’ll see.

     

Up here in Norway, its dry, soooo, dry. It might look like it is going to rain heaps any minute, but no,, not on us. We have had another record summer, but after a record snow-lessness winter all the water has run off.

huh! Read the rest of this entry »
