A brief Journey on the River

It had slipped my mind that I had arranged to take my SUP ladies on a journey this afternoon but I'm so glad we made the effort. We planned to launch at Tickton and simply paddle down to the cars at Weel Slip but where is the adventure in that. So we headed up against the flow and the wind for a short while until it proved too difficult to go further. Turning around to go back south we had a tail wind and flow so you can imagine just how fast we shot back down the river. A short but yet a very worthwhile couple of hours and the ladies did amazing on their first proper journey...

Paddling into the Sunset....

A beautiful evening to paddle with the the most lovely of friends, only saddened by those who could not join us.... The light was amazing, the small waterproof compact struggled. One of the shortest paddle trips of 2019 and yet one of the most memorable. I think we all knew the summer sunshine was going down for the very last time this year on our evening paddles, beautiful but sad.

Flamborough Head by SUP

Some real conditions today. Onshore winds on the south side of the head and then tide, swell and strong head winds into the landing. These guys did amazing.
