I have been thinking a lot lately about amongst other things, loosing weight, getting fitter, doing something amazing and a major charity pledge.
I have had some daft ones and some more realistic ones but the top idea so far, given my dodgy knees, is as follows:
To kayak from up stream of the Dartford crossing, around to Dungeness, an escorted crossing of the channel and then following the French waterways, Paris, Lyon and down to the Mediterranean and finish op at St Tropez. The best part of 1,000 miles.
It would likely not be practical until 2020 when I would be 56 and I would probably look to ‘buddy’ with an experienced kayaker like my nephew, given I haven’t canoed seriously since I was 14.
What is the consensus?
