The Edge is in the race

A while back I was chatting to a friend and pursuer of off the wall activities, Mr Steve Edge an internationally renown graphic designer and fellow fisherman, which is how we met. I mentioned the Devizes to Westminster and he said "Count me in mate"



It seems another boat is joining the merry band of craft attacking the course next Easter, I cannot wait to see what Steve decorates his boat with, this is a man that had a suit of armour made and sought permission from a pub landlord in the East End to ride a white horse into the pub dressed as St George.



Recent pursuits include catching a Ferrari in a London street with a salmon fishing fly rod, you just have to see it: http://www.steve-edge.com/ look under Steve's blogs, he'll bring a touch of glamour and fun to any setting even soaked to the skin paddling along the Thames in the dead of night.



Steve even decorates his fishing huts in Russia with sunflowers, the decoration was spotted from the air by a visiting dignatory who commented to his party "what on earth is that?", "Oh that will be Steve Edge" came the reply.


This is a man larger than life whose personality and strength is larger than his diminuitive frame and I am sure he will bring some colour and theatre to the event.



Well done Steve, get paddling mate......
