Hey! Me and my boyfriend are looking for some new paddling mates. We are whitewater paddlers both happy on grade 3 (my confidence is slowly improving on grade 4!) We are looking for paddlers of a similar age and ability (I'm 22 he is 28) around the Bristol area, we have a car and happy to travel South West or Wales but would be nice to have a few local paddling mates for bbq/beers etc. Get in touch :-) Jemma

Hey Jemma! I didn't realise you and Anton were looking for partners. I've been moaning about how the cheeky Friday club has become very quiet. There's a few of us heading out on Saturday & you guys would be welcome to join. Send me a Facebook message if you're free today - I took the day off! Cardiff is shut but we could go to Hurley or someplace.

Hi all

The Avon Outdoor Activity Club (www.aoac.co.uk) has a thriving bristol based paddling community - and we are also very social.
Other activities include mountain biking, road cycling, walking, camping, caving, sailing and a ski trip.

We're just setting our plan for the autumn/winter/spring session and we'll be having day and weekend trips to Rivers such as The Dart, Usk, Tavy, Upper Wye, Tryweryn, Teifi (Llandysul) and others.

We mainly paddle Grade 2 to 4 depending on coach/leader availability and we are very keen to progress the skills of new paddlers into the world of whitewater and sea kayaking.

Cheers
Lucia

Sorry to latch on to an old post.

Looking for anyone who fancies paddling from Bristol.
Unfortunately I don't have any transport so If anyone was up for lift sharing would be great.
I'm 20 and would love to improve my playboating, but tbh really just want to get on a river.

Cheers
Ross
