Friday 23rd February - Shopping trip to Lancaster (but good level on the Leven)

To PC World in Lancaster to pick up Donal's new Notepad, so seemed churlish not to pop onto the Leven on our way back (especially as the Youth was giving me grief to get out in the new boat).
Dropped the bike at Haverthwaite then straight onto the water and away; no time to play as it was late and I had no lights on the bloody bike! All rapids went straight on, both making eddies and straight into the drop at Backbarrow with no bank inspection. Really boily but excellent lines both - straight in, flat and out.
40 minutes to the bottom, quick call to Donal then punished myself by flat out biking to Newby Bridge and the car... Well, it sorted my thigh!
Andrew loves his Burn - it hammers into eddies as well as floating high and auto-boofing!
