Good Day,
Richard and I are planning to head out to Valleyfield Whitewater park Saturday! We will most likely leave from Bate Island at 9AM and be back at around 4 ish as I am attending CUKC Pool Session!
Sunday, We planned on heading to Trick or Treat falls for a few boofs and perhaps hit sewer wave for a few surfs later afternoon!
The more the merryer!
;D
-
Trying to get as much paddling before the ice comes! :)
-
if i can convince my dad that it isnt to cold i might come :P
-
At Valleyfield, Water is actually Warmer than the Ottawa river.. The St Laurent Seaway is a bigger body of water, therefore takes longer to cool down! I did not get a brainfreeze at all last week!
-
hahah well hes not to interested, but if someone can give me a lift i'd still be interested in coming
-
So Turns out that Richard is working Sunday so well keep it around the City! We Will go to Trick or Treat Falls at 11:30 and then head back to sewer for 2pm! I have only two seats in my truck but richard is leaving from Stittsville to come meet me in aylmer.
-
so you think you could give me a lift? are you in the ottawa area right now ? :P
-
Im in Aylmer! 3 kayaks def fit in my truck but i only have 2 seats! Richars will have his car. You can try to message him here for a ride tomorrow! Ill tell him to check his messages when I talk to him later! What area you in!?
-
ok,
do you have richards email or something so i can ask him? and where is trick or treat falls, ive never been there before but ive wanted to since the start of the season.
so just to clarify this is tomorrow (saturday 27th) that we would be going to trick or treat and sewer wave, and richard might be able to drive me.
thanks!
(ps depending on where trick or treat is my dad might be able to drive me, or maybe richard could drive me to the waterfall and my dad could drive me home from sewer wave?)

If your dad drives you to my house
28 Bourgeau Nord, Aylmer, QC, J9H 5M1
I will be able to give you a ride to the falls and then sewer wave! Your dad can then give you a ride from sewer wave back home!
Richard is meeting me at my house for 11 am and im sure he wont mind taking his own car to go to the falls as its just 20 mins away.
Call me tomorrow at 9:30 to let me know if youre in! :)

Hey some of the paddlers in the Trick or Treat video lookde familiar - Paul? Sina? Graham? Yes? No?
-
Yup Kelly that was us in all our glory.
Brrr..., talk aboutcold weather paddling. Sewer wave was small but fun Saturday. John C, Richard and I had a couPle of surfs each. Infringed in sympathy when John went over at one pointvand he did confirm that the water is getting colder.
Sorry for not joining you afterwards John and Richard. My appointment got pushed back. Thanksfor theHappy Feet John, I oweyou abeer!
Cheers
Paul:)

HAHA Yeah! Was a nice paddle! Probably not my last one this season but I definately wont be going every weekend now that its below freezing point! Glad I rolled up quick cause it is shallow downstream of the wave! I got your messages and I didnt end up going! We both went home and went to the CUKC Pool session! Let me just say that the water was very nice and warm! Brandon also taught me a few tricks for my back deck roll and I can roll from my offside just as well as my good side now! This will be useful! I tried the 2010 Superstar and loved it. Easier to throw ends! Ill have to rent one for a whole day sometime!
Nice paddling with you again!
