Something for the weekend
Very productive weekend when it comes to paddling
Baths on Friday,
Saturday went on the sea at Flamborough and did a little 10 mile paddle, hard work but a very nice day.
We decided to stop for lunch at Filey bay so we paddled for the sands, all the waves were ankle high to a grasshopper, then I paddle in and from nowhere this bigger wave decided to break right on top of me, lucky i adopted the correct approach leaning into the wave and got a fantastic ride to the beach. It was like old spice advert (ones with surfing in) crossed with a saga holiday promotion video to watch me go.
See picture of north landing, hardest bit was caring canoe back to the car park.
Sunday, went on the river don with the club but it had been that dry it was more like rock climbing as we banged along the river hitting rocks as we went.
