SUP Mallorca
A few weeks a go I had a great chat with With Bob Cartwright from the Outdoors Station about my paddle around Mallorca. Chatting about the trip, adventuring and the incredible spot of Stand up paddle boarding was a joy. Once I get started its hard to stop me, but Bob did a great job at keeping me on track.
The outdoors Station is the longest running outdoors podcast in the world, with a huge…

Isle of Wight SUP Circumnavigation
Paddling around the Isle of Wight has been on my ‘to do’ list for a number of years now. As a family we have holidayed there many times and living on the south coast there’s no escaping the Isle of Wight, sitting tantalisingly close, just 4 miles across the Solent. Paddling across from the mainland really appealed to me, as the ferry across is expensive and I’m a very tight Yorkshireman.

The Adventure Begins
Tumblr media
Well what an amaizing start to the trip. I’m sitting on the train to Gatwick and my phone pings at me. It the Easy Jet app telling me my flight has been delayed. This was going to be a late flight anyway, but now I won’t leave the UK until almost 11pm and won’t arrive in Palma until 02:17! I Think I’d better get as much sleep as I can on that plane.
So Just a brief blog post to tell you all…

Weather incoming!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just got home from an epic few days in North Wales with my two boys. We decided to make the most of the last week of Easter holidays. We were wild camping in the van and hitting the mountain bike trails, walking and visiting some of the attractions. More on that in a future blog.
“don’t come, have you seen the wind forecast!?”
While laying in bed one night parked in a layby just outside…

My Very Own Adventure

I’ve fancied attempting a multi day SUP challenge for a while now, I’ve seen others set off on their own adventures and longed to be going along too.  Well, now I’ve decided that it’s my time and I’m off on my own adventure.
I’ve looked at London to Paris, but the paperwork involved was a real downer. Then I looked at the River Douro, but…

Sleeping in a Bag
My wild camping experience.
Tumblr media
It’s around 02:00 on Sunday morning and I’m lying in a bag at the bottom of a soggy field. I’m cold and I feel like I’ve been awake for hours. It’s really not all that bad though, I’m gazing up at the clearest starry sky and I feel alive and free.
How did I get here and what am I doing?
Well I recently got involved with a collection of fantastically diverse dreamers; people who refuse to accept…

'Done is Better than Perfect'
‘Done is Better than Perfect’
Hi guys,
I’ve been very quiet on this blog over the last couple of years, and I’d like to correct that right now.  Im going to start by telling you all about my latest experiment.
As you know I’m not really a lover of the old Xbox, and hate the idea of people (especially kids) sat at home, wasting the day away in front of said machine.  I realise that not everyone wants to, or is capable of…
