The unveiling of the new liveried K2 Condor - Full Dress Rehearsal

Matt has arranged to have the boat badged with Help For Heroes decals and other material, I saw the boat at the club this week and it looks fantastic, thank you Matt and AB Walker.

In F1 style we will publish pictures after the weekend.

On Saturday we are paddling the length of the canal from Devizes to the Thames at Reading but we will deviate from the Devizes to Westminster course as we join the Thames and will turn left and head upstream back to Reading Canoe Club to give our support crew, the boat and ourselves a full test.

Knowing our full canal time will be invaluable in detremining what time we select to start from Devizes on Saturday 3rd April to hit the optimimum tide point at Teddington the following morning, high tide at Teddington is predicted at 06:59 a.m. on Easter Sunday.

Pictures to follow over the weekend.

We have pushed through the £4,000 mark with a continuing stream of donations thank you one and all for your support, it is making a huge difference to the charity, the lives of our wounded service men and women and the morale within the AB Walker Canoe Team as we move to T minus 22 days before the start. We are all most grateful to each and every one of you.
