Ludlow 9th March Report

[Tim]

The level today was about 1.25. Not sure what the lunar phase was. The paddlers today were Tim, Mike, Rich D, Nigel, Kee, Gary and Barry. The first weir was great today at this level with everyone getting stuck in and having a good go. Mike’s paddle snapped today, another reminder that more of us should carry split paddles in our boats. Today it was Ludlow but it could have been the upper dart. A fun surf wave after the second weir and good opportunities to practice breaking in and out and ferry glides. Everyone successfully ran the third and fourth weirs. It was a pleasure joining the Saturday Team today. Thanks!

[Richard D]

Great to have both you and Mike along with us today and hope you’ll get chance to join us and offer advice a lot more this year. Shame about Mike’s paddle but like some of the paddlers I think we can put it down to old age !
Looking forward to sunny days and warmer waters with a cold beer to finish rather than Nigels much needed warm drink, still, conditions not to bad today.

[Barry]

Great day thanks everyone

[Gary]

Second that great day thanks everyone

[Nigel]

A pleasure to have your company and on hand advice Mr Chairman, as always, agreeing with Rich D, hope you are able to grace us with your presence more often this year.
Gent’s the company was great and our mascot Mr Keelan, showed off a couple of very brave and confident rolls in a murky and chilly river, thanks all.
Rich D, I second the warmer weather and a well earned cold beer after a paddle it will make a welcome change.
Cheers All 🙂
