i've run the dodder a few times, mostly on dog low water but you can get down... one weir is a portage cause it drops about 10-12 foot onto rock..ouch!. there's also a big drop towards the end near the bus depot, you can see it from the road, but a bit of care would be advised, other than that just be careful of fallen trees..

What time are you guys leaving at, I might try and get my boat up today, otherwise I might not be able to get it up for the trip tomorrow.

Edit: 11.30 still?

I think you picked the wrong sport...

Why not try a warm sport - like skiing, or ice fishing, or snowman building?

I'll have you know I'm very hardy to the cold. I spend most of my time on a river upside down!!

I'm sorry to bring your dreams crashing to reality guys, but there's been no rain in Wicklow and Sluice is back to only a meg...

Weren't we meant to be training on the Dodder on Friday anyway?
I know that nobody has actually "organised" that yet, but I would like the chance to mess about and get my fitness up...it may even be fun?
