A stunning day for a paddle last weekend, across the bay and up the River Ely, 11km in 5 hours. 5 Kayaks and 3 Canadian Canoes including new members Reuben, who has just completed the beginners course and his dad Aled. Chris has also recently joined the club and it was Mathew's first outing in a solo canoe.
Oh, and there was cake, thanks to the nice man in the big boat who lent us his key fob so we could get out of the marina and up to the coffee shop.

Good Luck to our A team who are playing in Div1 of the National Canoe Polo League at Nottingham this weekend.
