First river trip of the year! Hope you can all make it!
This weeks trip will take place on Sunday 9th October due to the Liffey Descent being on the Saturday! (Which you should all head in and see if you can, it will be great!) We shall be heading to the Lucan Weir for some super fun times!
We'll be meeting at the boathouse at 10 o'clock and a bus will bring us out to Lucan where we shall embark on our adventure! :D
The boathouse is located past the sports pitches, between the Centre for Sports Studies and the dirt car park, the door has a disco paddler on it so should hopefully not be too hard to find.
The trip costs €10, which covers all your gear, boats, instructors and a bus there and back to UCD.
Also, even if some people haven't come out with us yet, that's no problem! Everyone is welcome and we still love you. We're also possibly having a BBQ afterward so even more reason to come along!
As always, you will need some thermals or old clothes (not cotton) for keeping warm, an old pair of shoes, swimsuit, towel and change of clothes! Any kayaking gear you may have would also be useful :)
SIGN UP below so we can know what approximately how many people are coming ;)

Looking forward to it.

Depends on finding somewhere to put my head down for the night. I'm up for the liffey descent on saturday.
Eoghan highway to dangerzone is one of those songs with a great intro but crap song, I do love it but for the cheese factor and like many great eighties songs for the abuse of the sax.
I would be driving so no need for a bus for me!
I'll be there,looking forward to it
Ross Kerrigan
Ohh a Sunday trip!! Might actually be able to make an appearance at this, all depends on what i do Sat night.
As i have only been in a boat once since this time last year I am very much favouring staying in bed over seeing what state my gear is after many months in a wet dry bag!
here i got my house mate to join up so he will be there on sunday with membership....
so throw Colum Roche on the list 8)
Aw Yeah Emma Keane Yeah ;D
Great I'll be there too, Christian Jones
Maria Tservjatsuk, lads...this is gonna be awesome. o.o
I shall attend the forementioned event

I asked people to confirm that they were going, yours wasn't very confirm-y... Just setting the standard for committing to best facilitate everybody logistically based on accurate figures! 20 maybes don't fill a 20 seater bus, they leave it empty and miss all the fun!
your damn right, Maryanne! 8)
Anne-Marie Nielsen
Anya Gleizer
This sounds sick!
yeah ill head along, sorry about the late notice i wasnt sure if i was well enough.
I'm in! ^-^Aisling Walsh
Count me in!! (Garbhan Gorman)
YEOW!! can't wait :))
I'll be there :)
oh, btw, what time should I be in Lucan at? (i'll go direct)
and where exactly is it in Lucan? :P
soooo my name is down but it is highly likely that i wont make soooooo if i dont appear at ten im not dead, im simply sleeping off a friday night/saturday morning :D
I hope it's not too late to reply. I'll be there if I can find the boathouse in the morning.
me please!
nicola monahan ;D
Oops looks like i forgot about this :(
Shall try again next week!
Woo! Thanks for a great trip guys :) :)
Yeah great trip boys and girls! Pretty BROWN!!! afro.gif
good hussle
Thank you all who came along, mighty good craic!
And Eoghan, erm, Brown?
I thought it was pretty orange myself, there is nothing more fun than sitting in icy water for an hour especially if you're not really needed due to people styling the boxes!

I was always taught that indecision is the key to flexibility.

You might have a point there. In my defense I forgot my cag and would have been borrowing needed club gear.
Don't forget that Lucan is so named in memory of George lucas who use that very weir to shot the opening scence from starwars. This is all going into the new tour guide for dublin.
