Unfortunately due to an unforeseen schedule conflict, this weekend's race has had to be cancelled. The SHQ team is committed to providing all their resources to the Brighton/Sandringham Festival at Green Point where there will be a SUP demo all day Sunday. We'd love to see everyone come on down and show the festival goers what a great sport SUP really is.

The next SHQ race will take place at Sandringham on 10th April.

That's a real bummer... I got a leave pass this Sunday, the weather looks promising and I feel like I was really starting to get into the swing of the race series...Now here's an idea...

Is anyone interested in meeting up on Sunday for an Ad Hoc race in lieu of the SQH cancelation? We could arrange a time and place and have our own race somewhere, just for kicks, on the QT.

ANY TAKERS? SPREAD THE WORD...

Perhaps it may have to be given a name.lf the cyclists get their "Hell Ride"
What can the Sup'rs come up with?
l was quietly hoping something like this could eventually occur on a regular basis as the sport grows in numbers.
Knowing some good road cyclists,some of these bunch rides are quite prestigious and hotly contested.
And we won't have road rage to contend with......aside from those rodents on jetskis

Great idea and I've been thinking the same thing for a while.. .. I used to do the 'Hell Ride' and loved it.

I reckon a regular Saturday morning 'Hell Paddle' that starts off as a casual cruise and ends in a race (only the last 15-20 minutes or so) where people get dropped or hang in there slip-streaming the good guys for as long as they can.. Sounds like fun to me.

Dj,we might take a cue from the "bay riders' group.
How about 'Bay Sliders'

BAY GLIDERS...?
Call it the Inaugural BAY BRAWL... Maybe we could kick off at Rickets Pt, paddle casually up to the Cerberus, and then race back? I'd donate a slab or a couple of bottles of wine to make it interesting. It would be a hoot.
