Who's going to Cranafest this year?  It's great craic. Dam release both days so guaranteed water. I've actually been training so we'll see how I get on.

If I happen to have the weekend off I'll be there :) too close to the start of the new job to be putting in requests though...

Turns out its the 21st to the 23rd. Got my dates wrong. Anyway, I've signed up and organised accommodation.

Not doing wild water racing this year . ..

Its better value than other events. There is guaranteed water, boat storage, lights, proper timing systems, t-shirt, demo boats and a fair bit more. Plus loads of time on the water.

Successful weekend in Buncrana. I won the wild water racers and the begineer slalom and Aisling C was on the podium a heap of times.

Some photos to follow later.

Those Exo's have awfully soft plastic. At least the dent was smaller this year.
