NO WATER = NO RACE

Unfortunately, I don't have any special considerations from dam operators or inside info as to whether or not the Yough will run Monday. If it doesn't run we're all S.O.L.

Makes it tough to commit to showing up i know. It is what it is.

Upper Yough BADDLUN 2009 results

With an underwhelming show of force two racers braved perfect weather to complete the inaugural Upper Yough BADDLUN. Many others would have liked to be there but had other commitments.

Sissies...

The ride was absolutely stellar, the paddle was LONG, and the run was very challenging.

We kept a loose time and finished in approximately 3:20 but slacked hard at transitions and kept a moderate pace throughout until the last downhill run where the level of disregard for ones knees separated the field.

Thanks to J.C.Rain for showing up and following thru...
