Hi Folks,

Just joined up so I thought I'd introduce myself.

I'm Dave. I don't live in the lakes but my family do and I spend alot of time in the Winderemere area. I usually paddle in Northwales but am always looking for an excuse to get up to the Lakes and do some paddling.

So far I have only paddled the Kent, Sprint and Crake, but I'm a solid G4 boater with SRT etc. Hopefully some of you will invite me for a paddle sometime.

Dave

Hey Dave,

Welcome to the forum!

Probably a daft question but, what is SRT? Perhaps one of these (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRT)? :D

Well, as much as I'd like to own the State Railway of Thailand... It just means that I've done a Swiftwater Rescue Technician course (level 1)

Not nearly as valuable but still quite handy for paddling :)
