Ok, so I admit, I paddled this last year, but time has gotten the better of me and what else was I supposed to post during the dry times?! So here we go, yet another Witte River article. This season I’ll try different angles and rapids, as even I’m getting bored of the same positions – no doubt you are :-) Or maybe I should take a cup of concrete and go and run it when it’s really high. Either way I suspect I’ll be getting some fresh stuff onto my site this season from another country if all goes well so bear with me here.

I won’t even begin another article by complaining about the lack of water, so I’ll just state again that this season sucked - thank you climate change. Let me also state that this November was probably the chilliest I’ve experienced since moving to Cape Town in 2008 and today is the 11th of December and I’m wearing a jersey, and yes, it even rained this morning. Our weather has definitely gone bonkers… It should be hot, very windy, and dry as hell. At least I’ve managed a few blistering windsurfing sessions so far, with waves to boot. Right, moving on.
