Wnion River trip

Robson, Stu and I (Gordon), did a bandit run of the River Wnion in North Wales yesterday, and all I could say the whole time was "Oh my God, oh my God". The only way to describe the Wnion is, exhilarating, picturesque, scary, fast, adrenalin filled, crystal clear water, with non stop action, which demands no laps in concentration, especially through the Gorge, (A real Gorge) where once you start you don't, (Can't) stop.
I don't want to paddle any other rivers now, I have been spoilt, We loved it so mych we ran it twice.

Kayaking Welsh style


Any one up for a paddle here this weekend, this was in the Metro tonight.
A kayaker is propelled down his sport's version of a ski luge.
He was part a group to brave the 350m (1,148ft) spill-way of Llyn Brianne Dam near Llandovery, Wales. He would have reached speeds of up to 65kph (40mph) on his descent.
