If anyone is still in the metro area, and hasn't lost all faith in the local weather forecast ( after yesterdays' (Friday) "Strong wind warning"), then post your interest and we'll get a DW going for Sunday 1st, starting at Port ( South end of carpark) and finish at Swannie SLC. Aim to be in the water at 1600. Happy New Year !!

Do you guys meet at port beach or at swannie slc?

Hi Lach
Ended up doing a 20km time trial with kevin Saturday morning

Seems like there is a fair bit of secret squirrel training going on aroind the place, could be a few surprises in the upcoming races. Out of interest what time did you guys clock for 20km?

Hi akhawk, I think some usually meet at swannie and leave a car then go to port but not sure as I have only done 2 and both times been dropped there and paddle home.

We did the 20km on the river, a beautiful glassy morning. Ended up taking 2:48 for me and Kevin was at least 10mins faster - pretty impressive given he had done 20kms on the ocean the day before. When I say time trial, it was more paddling to a set distance at 60% steady state, than full on. Good to get the distance out and find a suitable rhythm....lovely morning.
