Ice stops paddlers in the first freeze of the winter

Mike and myself were stopped by ice tonight, before the new bridge at Electric Wharf. It was only thin but enough to make us turn round. It wouldn’t have been a problem in a plastic boat.

I collected certificates from the Canal Society Christmas Party on Saturday, for the Mikes, Sarah and myself in recognition of paddling the 38 miles, with 13 portages on the Coventry Canal in 2007.

There has been a delay in ordering the two new Supersonics and neoprene decks, whilst the Council issue us with an amended grant acceptance form. Hopefully the funds will now go through.
