I'm not sure if this is of value to you
We are driving to Nashville Thursday (june 30) night. We'll be at the Gaylord opryland until sunday and then we are heading to Gatilnburg for a couple days. (staying at the ski resort) 4 days. That's the closest we'll get to NC.
We will have the racks on and a ...

We are going down to Nashville for a dance compitition July 1st to 3rd. From there heading over to Gatlinburg for some biking/hiking. We're only bringing one bike so we'd have room for a boat.

We can take it to Ottawa the following friday (2hours from Palmers) it can hang out with our garage ...

pick your visual and treat accordingly. Seams may be the culprit?, maybe try a bike short (chamois)? or make one

funny they mention bag balm and so do kayakers

saw the following post on the local Ottawa board and though it might be useful to you (it it's entirety:

Bonjour,

Je désire vous aviser que des travaux auront lieu sur la route dans le secteur Quatre-Jumeaux du parc national de la Jacques-Cartier à partir de la mi-septembre. Donc, vous n’aurez ...

Hey Collin,

protecting the junk eh?
bikers use Chamois cream many brands but: DZ Nuts......all in the name
adventure racers seem to mention bodyglide

Just checked the Northeast board H2sk1 and signed the petition.
I don't know if the state really understands what a jem they have there. It's a river that's accessable to many diferent types of paddlers. I know if they had 2 days in the fall you'd see an increase in Canadian paddlers.

I'd hate to ...

Adam,

Is this a different petition than the one circulated at the campground during the fall release?
Is there anyone I can write a letter to?
We drive 7 hours every fall to this release. Not many river/ festival combinations are as family friendly as ths one. Our kids really look forward to it ...

I tell ya, it was a mistake to miss ALF and come heck or high water we're going next year. Dooley, Stew was drooling over the vids of little clear.......
as for the banquet, or anything else y'all think is good and un-organized , we're in.

cheers, and post more pictures!!!!!!!!

EZ.....we have a second boat Dagger Legend that is the workhorse. Man can that boat carry gear for 16 ft.
The caption:
adult, kid and about 60 lbs of gear maybe before you'd feel it.
Remeber to that ours is tandem saddles balanced for 110 bow and 180 in stern. We have less weight I think in saddles ...

I hate to disagree with EZ. Normally it results in being pointed out the error of my ways :lol:
BUT, we have a caption which we use as a secondary boat in a tripping family. The legend takes the vast lion share but the caption will take a reasonably loaded 30 lt and a 30 lt soft side baja bag ...

I'm not sure what direction yer taking with "best"
as in the most accomidating and friendly?
I've paddled in the SE, the NE (I'm bad with my cboat geography, now does Vermont and NY count as NE or is that some other term :P ) , Quebec and Ontario
pretty much everybody is helpful and willing to let ...

Ah Louie, ya gotta give us Canadians some time to adjust...... we are just not use to getting on the spring river whenever..... hades up here you got a window on a sunny day of 10 to 3; outside of that the river freezes on yer boat :lol:

You got lots of patience for us watch wearing, map carring ...

I've had my Taureau for 2 1/2 seasons and have beat the heck out of it. Many strong hits over that time. I've got a good dent in the bow and a few other character marks, but it is holdng up better then I could imagine. The seam has not been an issue. I've also not had the hand issue hitting the seam ...

Thanks Jim for the story.

As for the spectrum of physical activity, cycling surpases boating.

people who are active are more body aware....if they have a medical condition, they manage it. Just ask the new guys if there is anything you should know and where their meds are ...
