Saturday, 11th May: Medway Trip All day: Dave Driver is organizing a trip to the river Medway on May 11th (Saturday). The route will be from Tonbridge to Yalding, passing through several locks. The locks are easy to get past due to dedicated portage points for kayaks and canoes. For the more confident (and weather permitting) there are also canoe slides so you can even avoid the portage. After disembarking the pub is only a short walk. Email us if you’re interested. Please also state whether you are capable of transporting boats. There are trains between Yalding and Tonbridge, but a shuttle may be easier, so please also indicate if you are happy to do that as well. |
