I have created Northern Colorado Fitness Paddling group on Facebook to coordinate our winter paddling on the South Platte River. I will post incoming events and updates there as well as in a calendar on a sidebar here. Paddlers of all skills and fitness level are welcome to join us.

It was my 4th Missouri River 340 Race. I always paddled that race solo: 2006 – 78:32 in Spencer X-treme canoe, 2007 – 68:00 in WSBS Thunderbolt-X kayak, 2008 – 62:17 in Sea Wind canoe (self supported). This year I decided to paddle Surfrigger, my outrigger canoe.

I am using currently Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS with heart rate monitor for my outdoor exercise. The picture below shows this GPS unit mounted with a suction cup on a deck of my Thunderbolt-X kayak.

The 2nd Wyoming Outback Challenge on the North Platte River organized by Canoe Colorado took place on May 25, 2008, during Memorial Day weekend.
