Lina spent 2 days this weekend doing very well at the
Kalamalka Lake Classic stand-up paddleboard races. So well in fact, that she won all three of them and retained her title as "Queen of Kalamalka". Lots of photos of paddling and winning can be found
here.
Whilst Lina was winning, Paul, Angie, and I enjoyed the trails in the Cosen's Bay area of the lake at a more relaxed pace.

Now for what's next. Tomorrow, Lina and I leave for Whitehorse, where we'll race bikes in the
24 Hours of Light, and then Lina will attempt to paddle a very long way down the Yukon River from Whitehorse to Dawson... on a stand-up paddleboard. I will be carrying the beer and potato chips (and a few other things) in a sea kayak. As far as we can tell no-one has done this before (the SUP part, not the beer and potato chips)... which has let to a lot of interest and greatly appreciated support and advice. The following people have helped us out with some great equipment for the trip, which we will try not to lose or break along the way. Thank you!
