Following on from our successful trips to Wales last year and the Lakes last month, I thought it might be a good idea to try to organise another one. I'm thinking about a weekend to the Yorkshire Dales on the 20th-21st March. There are a couple of low-meduim water options: the Wharfe & the Ribble, with others if there's been more rain. http://www.ukriversguidebook.co.uk/neengland/wharfekettlewell.htm http://www.ukriversguidebook.co.uk/nwengland/ribble.htm Both of the above are good rivers, of a standard fairly similar to the Leven or the Dart Loop if you portage the hardest rapid on each (which are IV+ to V+ anyway, depending on levels.) If there is a drought between now and the trip (you'll have paid anyway) so the best option will be going mountain biking instead, unless you fancy flatwater paddling, or a long drive each day to the Lake District. Time is short, so I'll need definite responses ASAP. When I know numbers I'll book some accommodation (probably hostel or bunkhouse - budget on about £20 pppn.)

Bob, Geoff Please hang on a bit - me, Cassie and Bricey have been trying to organise the first Barle Team Race for the 20th. There would have been an announcement to all about the race, but I think the access issue has got in the way. I am hoping the race will go forward in some form. Is there any chance you could make it another weekend? We'll know more after Thursday hopefully that's not too late for you. and Bob should you be travelling 5 hours away when George is about to drop? ;-)

What's the news? Is the race going ahead, or Geoff are you still planning another weekend trip. I would be interested to know either way. John BS
