Ok, challenge is; boathouse to Corbally Bridge and back.

To keep things standard, time starts when you pass the pontoon, go around one of the bridge pillars at Corbally and stop the time when you pass the end of the pontoon again.

Give it a go and post your time and what boat you paddled up here, simple! If a few people get into it I'll look into getting prizes and stuff.

Me and Emer did it in just over 42 minutes in Golas today.

But the important thing is we had fun.
Sheep, like all wool-bearing animals, instinctively travel north, where it's colder, and they won't be so stuffy.

Not neccessarily, we won't be able to compete in hp unless we get our hands on some marathon boats.

The varsities definition of HP is fŭcked up, Golas will never be able to come close to the rest of the boats in that class.
