Ridiculous amounts of footage of ridiculous kayakers. There are days of editing ahead of me, and thankfully the good people known as Alex’s family have been kind enough to let me hunker down in their cabin for a while so that I can cull through this footage. Last week I put up a gallery of some of the stills from the Nantahala store wave – take a look (click on it).

If you’ve never seen the Smokey Mountains, this be what they look like.

Before heading  to the cabin I spent a weekend biking over at Tsali with a couple friends, to get warmed up for the hours ahead of me, I cranked out this little video this morning. It’s laughable.
