Fashion designer Mike Greenslade has been putting the final touches to the new logo for the round Britain paddle in 2012…..
Now we have the T-shirts printed there is definitely no going back now. I am looking forward to the boxer short version!

So a couple of months before I started my sabbatical, I got an email from Andrew, a friend and colleague, with the simple text “Any interest?” – and a link. The longest non-stop canoe race in the world it said. Starting in Devizes and finishing just downstream of Westminster Bridge – 125 miles long and 77 portages. It went on to say that the race is a severe test of skill and stamina……
Of course I was interested, after all, how hard can it be?

A huge congratulations to Jane, Catherine, Amanda and Amanda for successfully completing the Trailwalker 2011 challenge.
Trailwalker UK 2011 is the original 100km team challenge, across the South Downs with the Gurkhas. Four people, one goal, 100 kilometres in under 30 hours. An incredible experience combining endurance, navigation, determination and teamwork and that’s just the support crews!
The team were raising money for Oxfam – make a donation here.
