[LCC-Club] Fw: Kayaking Presentation Night in York

[Jonathan Dempsey]

Hello everyone.
 
I am writing
invite you to an evening of kayaking lectures in Yorknext Wednesday
(17th).
I know this is
a long way for many of you to travel, but we are hoping the line-up is enough
to entice you.
For starters,
Max Bilbow recently released the DVD ‘Means of Production’ showcasing some of
the best UKtalent in rivers. The sequel to that is out sometime next year.
 
If you would be
able to put the message below on your forum, or email it to the club list this
would be much 
appreciated.
 
Any profits
made from the evening will go to wither the RNLI, or Mountain Rescue.
Get in touch if
you are interested (we will help further with directions), and please pass this
email on to anyone else you think may be interested.
 
Hopefully we
will see you there.
 
Thank you,
Dave Burne

An Evenings Entertainment
EXPLORING THE RIVERS OF SIBERIA, MONGOLIA, AND VIETNAM
 
York University
are hosting an evening of tales from 3 young paddlers who like to go out and
explore beyond the usual destinations, getting to know the local culture, the
local wildlife, and of course the local beverages. They also tick off first
descents as they go.
 
Dave Burne
will be telling
us more about why not to go to Mongoliaif you have a fussy palate (along with a bit about the frustrations that can
arise with exploratory boating, many pictures of Mongolian 1st descents, and an
epic Siberian multiday trip)
 
Luke Farrington & Andy Jaunzems
will be
explaining the difficulties that can occur when transporting 8 kayaks, 8
students, and a shed load of gear from China To Vietnam (but will also describe
a 6 week long adventure in SE Asiadiscovering the whitewater potential of Vietnam's
unexplored rivers)
 
Max Bilbow
will enlighten
us on why it is useful to have a grasp of the Russian language when you’re
stuck in Siberia with only a bunch of crazy local boaters (this is also giving
a sneak preview of the sequel to his kayaking DVD Means of Production)
 
It will be a
chance for you to meet new paddlers, hear about different cultures &
lifestyles, see some incredible scenery, and hopefully be inspired (and at the
same time getting a healthy dose of kayak gnarl).
 
DETAILS:
Where:YorkUniversity    Room: Langwith lecture theatre (we’ll help you find it!)
