The decision has been made now, and I'm off to carry out extensive Safety Training that is needed prior to the Atlantic Challenge. I will still be available during this training for email enquiries and, while I'm away actually on the row during January and February, our on land support team for the Lonodon to London via Paris Challenges will deal with all emails and phone calls as usual. You'll either end up speaking to Chris or may be re-directed to Richard Bain (our Safety Expert) for any technical issues.
Other than that, we have a team from the 2010 L2P event taking one of our Gigs out for a test row or two hopefully within the next two to three weeks. This will take place at Gravesend.
Also, Richard is pressing ahead with the issue of getting the Gigs coded for our future events. This is necessary so that the authorities on both sides of the water are happy with our plans and designs.
A couple of people have taken the step of phoning in to make sure there are still places available for them in the 2012 Challenge. The answer at the moment is always 'yes'. There are various people in different parts of the country who are looking for other rowers willing to take part. I have a list of people that want to go and are desperately looking for sponsorship too. If any of you out there have sponsors and are looking for crew members, please look up London to Paris on Facebook. Apparently, a page has been started by a Richard Bain (more technically gifted than me) where you can all talk to each other about all things LtoLviaP.
Enjoy!
