Niall Finch · January 17, 2013, 10:58:52

Morning All,

Douchier · January 17, 2013, 11:09:56

I'd like to put my name forward as a duo team, with Derv as my co-pilot! (Don't worry Cobill, this team comes with it's own duo).

DervM · January 30, 2013, 00:17:05

Paddling alongside Cobill and Niallmuid - rally the troops!

I can do HP or K1, which will get us the most points. I have a boat for each as well so I might be able to give a lend.

Douchier · January 30, 2013, 20:20:09

Wonderful to hear Sean.
I think that between yourself and Liam, it makes sense to split you guys into different categories to get the most points we can.

Everyone else:
It's still a bit up in the air with who exactly is going to be in what category. I reckon that most guys will be going in duo, doubles or canadian so if we can get everyone out on Saturday we'll try people out as much as possible and try and get some teams nailed down.

Boom.

HelenaC · January 31, 2013, 10:31:49

hey niall... I'll consider trying the wave-hopper again if i can get some dry gear/ wetsuits off someone for saturday??

Hey guys, according to the online form the following list shows everyone's first preference for long distance:
If your preference has changed please post up by tonight.

Despite sourcing many extra boats, it is still unlikely that we'll be able to give everyone their first choice, but we'll do our best.
Where we have to choose between people for categories we think we can do well in we will take into consideration training and fitness, but the goal is that everyone will get to participate in the event somehow!
