Last Sunday a few of us had a pleasant paddle on the Irwell, it was a good level but a lot lower the the week before when Mark and I did it. It was good to see the difference so soon afterwards.On this paddle Finchy showed us a unique way of shooting the weir in an open boat. He says he learnt it at his 5 star training.
Damaged storm water pipe just after put in
Mark and I had to duck under this pipe two weeks ago
The master
This was where the big hole was two weeks ago right accross the river
No Bill that is not how you do it says the pro Finchy
This is how it is done, you turn your back on the obstacle, look up stream, sit at the front, put your paddle down and eat your sandwich and hope for the best, oh and no I didn't make it but next time I will, trust me.
