Clifden lifts (23-25 August 2013)
« on: August 14, 2013, 17:19:09 »
So who's going for real and has car space for people and/or boats?

Original thread: http://forum.ucdcanoeclub.com/index.php/topic,11577.0.html#quickreply

I'm curious to know if it's going to be a big thing...  :)

I'm only 70% sure I can go at this stage, whether or not that's with the car or not is to be decided.

My access to the Astra is limited now since my sister is getting ready for a driving test on it.
I have a Yaris I can use, but it has no roofracks and no one damp or unclean is allowed in it...so it's a non-paddling car.
If I go I'll come on Saturday, and won't have to leave on Sunday since I won't have work on Monday morning.

The two weeks starting on the 24th are my summer holidays :)

Cool, you'll get Saturday evening, Sunday morning and Sunday evening and Monday morning. 4 tides is well worth travelling for. Stick your playboat inside the Yaris. Bring a bivi bag to keep the car clean when you get to Clifden.
