Hello all!
« on: April 01, 2012 »

Hello folks

My name is Pete, I'm 30 yrs and from Crossgar or close enough to it.  I am very pleased to have found a forum like this as I have been out of the loop for WAY too long!!  I have tried in recent time, rather unsuccessfully I might add, to get back into Kayaking.  I am a big fan of open boats but also anything with white water although I am very inexperienced so any help in this field would be greatly appreciated.  Big fan of bouldering also.

I am also a fan of hill/mountain walking but sadly have become very unfit over the past number of years, this is something I would like to rectify!!

Effectively I'll have a crack at anything, especially if its in the water or on a mountain, but I know my own limits which helps :D

I was introduced to this site by a very nice man in Asda, Downpatrick who picked up on my clothing, so a BIG thankyou.  I look forward to getting to know you all.
