I'm a newbie to this list as well as paddling , haven't even gotten a paddle wet yet :( I am enjoying the list though and plan on searching out some local shops for kayaking lessons next month. My question is this: How often is the average paddler on this list able to get onto the water? Once a week, a couple of times a month, every day(for those fortunate to live on or near the water)? I was just wondering...... Thanks _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Under normal circumstances twice a month; but this month I've had bad luck with the weather and work. If I lived closer to the water, and wasn't married, I would probably do better! *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************
Oh well, I am going to cry...there is still no open sea... Edward wrote: > My question is this: How often is the average paddler on this > list able to get onto the water?

It comes in November, and seems to cover the sun also, up until this beautiful March sunshine. BESIDES ranting here and being a real nuisance to others I am kayaking something between two, three to seven days/week. Depends on the ice and holidays, you know :-) very difficult to estimate. Very nice to have new folks here - good luck for you, if you already have caught the fever...

Six days a week -- I live about a mile from the Brandywine, and barring things like T-storms and ice, I'm out there training as often as possible. If I'm not there, then I'm running a river or racing (which is kinda the point of all the training ;-) ). ---Rsk Rich Kulawiec rsk_at_gsp.org *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************
I get out every saturday and sunday for at least a few hours and will start paddling after work when daylight savings arrives. cya Bob Denton Vice President Undersea Breathing Systems bob_at_dnax.com http://www.dnax.com *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************
