Would be great to see more Sydney suppers get out and do the Bridge to Beach this year. 11km cruisy km if you don't want to push it too hard.

According to Dean and Yanda they're hoping for up to 500 paddlers and 500 swimmers if things go to plan so it should be something pretty awesome to be part of.

It's always been a great fun event with a The Baviarian Bier Cafe as a sponsor it's worth hanging around afterwards for a drink or 2. If you want to find out more go to oceanpaddler.com/ .

I will be there for sure, with matt, keiren nat and hopefully a few more of the monday crew. Guys did a semi test run last sat, and said it was fun, if not a little bumpy around some of the points.

Would liked to have done the paddle this year but I'll be in Gerroa for the NSWWA Teams Event - the best one of the year!

Sorry Doc, that's my fault. As soon as I registered and paid my entry fee, the wind forecast changed from awesome to crap. Just my luck.

Hopefully it won't be too strong in the morning.
