Rules of thumb
Rivers marked “easy” will be up to class II, those marked “medium” will be up to class III. Any trip marked “hard” will be above class III.

I have left some weekends free for some adjustment as necessary, and to allow other trips to take place on an ad-hoc basis. These trips will be organised at short notice and will tend to be rain dependant. They will be advertised on the noticeboard at the pool whenever possible.

The details for all the Training trips will be finalised closer to the date when we know who wants to attend them. We also have to account for water levels and weather, so please check the notice boards at the swimming pool or contact the trip organsisers for up to the minute information.

Anyone wishing to put ideas for future trips forward, please contact Ian or myself.

See you on the river, John Woodhall
