Title: Were to, wicklow or the boyne??
Post by: david on November 01, 2006, 13:56:53
Well folks, hopefully we'll get a trip to wicklow this weekend but that depends on numbers. Please post up if you'll be going on the river trip.

Also post up if you'll be there to do rescue.

Hey Dave.
It looks as if a lot of people are heading to the Boater cross. It might be a good idea if you want to cancel the trip and bring the freshers up to have a look at the event. And see top international athletes (aka Pissheads) compete in ireland.

With the amount of people, the traffic and parking restrictions in place around buckies bridge the option is claravale church down to rathdrum or Annamoe bridge down to trooperstown. I would recommend the boyne as it will be a nice level and those of us driving can give lifts to freshers to the party then they can watch on sunday.

Count me in first club trip in 18 months so be gentle.  Feck watching!  DO let others watch us.  Boyne would be nice, Wicklow would be nicerer.

I probably won't have a car.

I seriously doubt there will be any water in Wicklow after the drought that was this week. I vote for Boyne.

Don't worry Mick, I can show you which bit's of the paddle go in the water. I look forward to paddling in your company once again. It has been all to sane over the past 18 months.

With Daddy Brendino on this one, no water in wicklow. Boyne would be better for everyone. Especially your rescue. On another note those wishing to go to the boatercross party I will give lifts to people based on first come first served, looks and of course any strange talent you might have. Lifts back is another thing I will be hiking on sunday so you may need to beg borrow and steal to get back.

Irregardless of where we are going, although I hear...

Quote from: Our Captain
It's the boyne baby!!!!!


...it's gonna be cold, so either:

a) bring lots of thermals/fleeces/wetsuits for yourself (no cotton, none, not even bras*)

or

b) don't come crying to me when you're all cold an stuff.

We're serious about this - people who we deem don't have enough or the right gear with them will not be allowed on the river.

Cormac (Normally a nice guy).
