River Crake – Wildwater Race Report (club event)

Sunday 11th October 2020 – River Crake

The sun shone on us all day for the first wildwater race of the season. 21 club paddlers of all abilities and all ages competed in this fun event. The Crake had plenty of water in following recent rain. This made the paddle up to the start at Penny Bridge a bit of a slog for some. Setting off at 1 min intervals the run down was some what faster with some taking less than 5 mins. Many thanks to Andy and his many helpers for making it a ‘grand day out’ (and to all participants that made the effort so worth while). Special appreciation to the Crake Croquet Club for letting us access the river via their property.
