I heard that Strange Brew, Selkirk Serpents, Absolut Adrenaline, the New PI (Precision Impossible) are going.

On the flip side, Navy Dragon Anchors were going to Calgary.  A few other teams are doing the same from Vancouver Island.  Perhaps for the CCWC Canadian Qualifiers.

Xtreme Reach will definitely be there supporting our home club GRPC.  I personally will not be racing.  I am part of a group that is paddling the Bowron Lakes during that period.  Instead of 500 metre stints we'll be canoeing 125 km (including over 10km of portaging).  I should be back buff and ready for the Victoria International Festival the following week (wishful thinking of course).

Tiger, I think on the Gorge there will be a proper finish - ie, teams will have unambiguous results.  The conditions on the gorge are far better than at Richmond, or should I just say different from Richmond?  (which was interesting, to say the least - and it was cool racing there).  

Gorge is fun....it started several years ago to give a taste of competition to stu teams practising at GRPC a week before the Victoria festival...it has evolved into a fun time.

The site is nice (no dust), and the races are great!....my team has lost many races there!  But always nice people!!

   
Please come  :D    My team is St'Keya.....I would be interested in talking to someone such as you.

Looking forward to this race as it is always a well run event with a great beer garden and has exciting close finishes (Yes on video camera!) For the padlders who doubt it then come on over and catch a preview of what they will face the following week in the Victoria Festival.
GO Absolut!

i dunno know about the grpc junior team, it's so hard to tell about a new crew... like they could be bad, but then again, that junior pemberton team kicked some serious butt at alcan.  :shock:  look forward seeing them on the water this weekend.  :lol:
