    Good to meet you on Sunday on the Eden.

    I asked about local rivers to paddle which would for a 2/3 day trip and you mentioned the Soar. I would be grateful if you could provide me a few details of the route (put ins, take outs and suggested camp spots). Many thanks Louis

    Hi Andy

    I really didn’t do justice to the feedback form from last weekends Level 1 Coach assessment. So, thank you for a really good day in canoes! I learned plenty, enjoyed picking your brains and really liked your relaxed style that put us all at ease. It was great to meet you too.

    Cheers!

    Paul
