    Hi Rich,
    Not out as Tyler on half term ! Odd I know but he has 2 weeks now but only 4 weeks in the summer. How about a New steady challenge the “River Derwent”
    at Matlock, it is a pleasant bit of water albeit not very challenging ?
    Cheers 😉

    Hi Sonny,

    He is more than welcome to attend the pool session tomorrow. Usual initiation with a swim and move on to capsize exit.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Guy’s,
    I see valid points from both sides. When I am out on my travels if I know of a river near by or spot one, I often stop off a couple of places to view and even make a few notes. The good thing with the likes of Google Maps is it enables us to see lay-bys bridges, put in’s and take out possibilities, parking etc etc. Along with getting a general picture of the surroundings in our mind which I feel can be useful.
    Being part of a group of paddlers who look out for each other and work as a team is also very vital. Deciding who may lead an unknown section of water and who to position where within a group this along with deciding what to paddle depending on the experience and capabilities of the group and ensuring portages are available if members wish to walk round a particular feature.
    Going and finding out is a real buzz, the excitement of the unknown which is fine if this is a viable option.

    Organised safety sessions including throw line practice, getting in and out of boats in deeper water using a buddy system with other members. Some of this could be done at the pool and other sessions at the likes of Jackfields and Mile End Mill, once weather starts to improve and get warmer. (Maybe once every 5 or 6 weeks could be an idea) 😉

    As a motorcyclists for many many years this river is the nearest you can get to a real Sunday morning high speed blast around wales. WOW WOW!!!
    Great day again thanks to all, I really feel the sentiments of Tim’s comment about the team work, every one played a valuable part in the trip today which is what being part of the club in my opinion is all about.
    Cheers 😉 😉 😉 😉 and still smiling
