River Wye SUP challenge

Finally met up with Ed Carne today and introduced him to the SUP board which will help him paddle the 80 miles of stand up paddling down The Wye river he hopes to achieve.

3 days, 80 miles, one board, one paddle.
Ed Carne is Stand-Up-Paddling 80 miles down the River Wye in aid of the charity ShelterBox. The event takes place on Thursday 5th, Friday 6th and Saturday 7th of July 2012. The journey will start at Glasbury-on-Wye and Ed will work his way downstream along the Anglo-Welsh border all the way to Monmouth.
Stand-Up-Paddle-Boarding’s popularity has grown massively lately, as people have realised it is a fantastic way of getting a good workout while enjoying some beautiful surroundings and being at one with nature. Stand-Up-Paddle-Boarding is being done on lakes, rivers, oceans and in the waves.
