SATURDAY KAYAKING TRIP, OCTOBER 17th THIS SATURDAY
So this weekend we're hoping to follow on from last weekend's EPIC-NESS!!! I certainly enjoyed it so much I've to stay in bed all day today!!
To those that missed out on last weekend boo-urns...but obviously it doesn't mean you can't come out with us ever again. On the contrary- you've just gotta paddle and party harder to catch up with us ! ;D
So we're off to the LIFFEY!! Where we will be doing 3 weirs on the river!! WOOP
For all you drivers, we'll be getting on at Lucan Weir, and getting off after Wrens Nest!
So same story as the Lucan trip- meet at the boathouse at 10 am saturday morning with €10 for the bus and some warm layers for under wetsuit!!
To get to the boathouse: follow the line from the N11 entrance
http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&t=h&msid=108823805635426101819.000474f075743b1e6f591&ll=53.309118,-6.218195&spn=0.000689,0.002401&z=19
If you're coming from the Clonskeagh entrance and can't figure out from the map where the boathouse is -wait at the entrance and give one of the committee a ring.
Sign up here to come on this inaugural liffey trip o' the year!

Hey Dave, you feel like heading to the Rodeo for a while and then paddling down to meet the rest of the trip?
-
im not sure wed be able to do both bouche, mens sport 1 n 2 are at 11:50 and 12:10 respectivly, and every thing at a freestryle comp usually starts about half an hour late. wat time do you think ucd will b gettin on?
and eoghan sluice is the best playspot in the country, and the liffey aint river runnin!!! ;)
-
sssssshhhhhhh!!!there's budding fresher kayakers on this board!!but yes your right-JUST WAIT TILL WICKLOW!!!
-
its not river running but it is slick !!!
-
no decisions there dave! as we all know sluice isn't that good and running rivers is waaay better!!!
Translation:
I can't playboat.
Also, I recently bought a boat that's so big that it can't capsize.
Dave, I'm not too sure but I'm sure that we could catch them (this may involve actually paddling on the flat sections).
Is it too late to actually register?
-
ha thanks for the translation!!!
yeah we shud b able 2 register but im still fairly sure we wudnt have time
-
no decisions there dave! as we all know sluice isn't that good and running rivers is waaay better!!!
ha sorry true translation:
PLAYBOATING'S FAIRLY SHIT, WICKLOW KICK'S SLUICE'S ASS ANYDAY!!! :)
-

Ok just come from docs and he says ON NO ACCOUNT ARE YOU TO PADDLE ON SAT! (i got a chest infection) but i just got my new wetsuit and bought that PFD off Sara and they need christening!!! I dunno what to do! instinct tells me go but doctor says no!
-
see how you feel Fri evening/Sat. Your chest will be toasty warm in your wetsuit and BA!
Sara
-
Man, don't listen to doctors! Half the time they're only giving you advice that'll make them laugh...
Examples of actual medical advice received in the last year:
- Nonononono, it really is a rectal thermometer!
- As a medical practitioner I thoroughly recommend you drink that clear fluid you've just found in the hardware section, you drunken mess!
- Shut up before I hurt you real good!
Never listen to them - EVER!!!
-
Aight i'll see how i am fri and if i turn up i turn up if not well then i guess i won't!!!!
-

Yes but isn't that Lisa trying to kill you? You have to be lucky all the time she just has to be lucky once.

I'm sorry Leighton, you are the best equipment officer in the world and I'd do anything for you, infact.. I... I think I love you.
-
Woah, calm down there Maeve, please remember to be gentle with me. I'm delicate.
-
lol nice Ley!
-
Maeve, there's no pleasing that Leighton chap. Plus, it seems he's already taken. I'd cut my losses and move on.
On an unrelated note, I'll be there this Saturday, with my tinkerbell on! And by tinkerbell I mean my wonderful new mint green helmet; thanks Sara! :)
-

I'm merely retaliating against Eoghan.
-
count me in provided theres space!
-
HA i'm molesting the freshers since you started messing with their posts!!you started this leighton!!
MARK!!! what the f**k are you doing making leighton an administrator??
-
I love my Teddy SO MUCH!!!!! No cursing now. TEDDY'S sensitive to that sort of thing
-
Ok it seems i have gotten worse and if i did go tomorrow no matter how fast i paddled i would not be able to catch up with my nose so my space on das bus is free, this so totally sucks major monkeys!
:'(
-
I think Sexy beast leigh man should be banned from administrator - BANNED i say!!! Some people just can't handle their authority... (anyone else think he's over compensating??)
My guess is he has a small.....teddy bear
-
Hey, orla wants to go on the bus too, but her computer wont let her access the board.
-
I enjoyed the bus immensely......
-
Yea but you were really loud, next time try and not shout so much, man!!
-
Good fun?? loose any freshers?? ;D
-
Yea was good craic! The more experienced paddlers were split into a different group so I wasn't able to save any of the freshers. :( You owe me a beer though Rowan, ha!!!
-
I think I owe a few people a few beers!
Woop! Swimmer. Rowan. Liffey!
