hi all,just came across the site this evening while searching for something completely different.

i used to frequent bcuk years ago but thats another story........... ::)
im usually down in belfast but am also found in mid ulster too on occasion.
anyway, i enjoy rough camping ,usually with a tarp and hammock and ive been a kayaking enthusiast for a few years too. mainly offshore kayak fishing to be precise...tope,cod pollock ,also do a bit of kayak fly-fishing.
its an ocean kayak prowler elite that i also use for touring/camping.

we`re planning to do 280 miles next year for a diabetes charity next year so have begun training for that recently.

you,ll be able to read about it on kayakanglingireland.com if your interested.


anyway, nice to see theres a northern ireland site for this stuff now. time for a browse i think .........................

I really want to do the Bann canoe trail. It's a lovely spot. I've done Toome to Newferry a few times but never further.

pablo

There is pleasure in the pathless woods, There is rapture on the lonely shore, There is society where none intrudes, By the deep sea and the music in its roar; I love not man the less, but Nature more
