Anglesey/WUCC Scotland Tour

Posted by on April 13, 2012

Hey Guys,

It’s been a long time since we’ve posted on here, but that’s not due to lack of things happening!  Ok where to begin, about three weeks ago Erin and I headed back to Anglesey for some paddling.  Mark was busy unfortunately so he missed out!  It was good fun, we swapped kayaks for a bit so Erin could try out my LV Cetus and we practiced some rescues and rolling.  Had some pretty crazy weather though.   In the space of an hour it went from calm sunshine:

To heavy hail:

Then later on it brightened up again:

The next day Erin headed off on Warwick University Climbing Club tour in Spain.  Erin came from tour at about 2am on the 29th March (nice and tanned) then we all headed straight off on Warwick Canoe Club Scotland Tour!

Unfortunately the rivers were a little dry…but we did manage to paddle most days.

Here is a photo of Mark on the Spean:

And here is a photo of Erin on the Garry:

The three of us had a fantastic time on Scotland Tour, and halfway through we had a very exciting email from OverBoard, who are sponsoring us some dry bag and cases for the trip which is really awesome!

So a big thanks to Joel and team at Overboard.  Check out the OverBoard website!

Also our charity fundraising is going well so a big thank you everyone who has sponsored us! (9% of the way to our team target!).

Unfortunately now we are back from Scotland we have to get on with work as we all have university deadlines and exams looming…
