Really young guns

Last night saw the first fo the Breadalbane Canoe Clubs summer river trips. After practicing some skills during the winter period in a nice warm swimming pool, we moved on to a section of the river Tay through Aberfeldy. Turns out the falling in the river is a bit colder than the swimming pool............. who knew!!!!!!

Days off

Days off will soon become rare as the season gets busier and busier, Two in row equals a day on bikes with Helen and laps on my favourite river with Young Callum. Happy Days.

Look closely at Helens face!!!!!

Needless to say Winston was tiered after running 16km
