Great tip about Kenny's Taxis. Had no idea such a thing existed.

[@fetabrown]

Enjoyed this, and will take on board the tip about Kenny’s taxis.

[@andyb901]

Brilliant video!

[@colinillman3986]

Nice vid. Thanks for the upload and info 😃

[@brucebignell]

Love this

[@paulcarter8215]

Well done.The Challenger did well.

[@nickcowley]

It did, as did Chris driving it! Maybe pushing its limit of comfort over that distance though.

[@christrower]

Nice one - very informative! Is there a way to order the actual pamphlet rather than pdf?

[@nickcowley]

Thank you, glad you found it useful. I'm not sure about the pamphlet, the link was directly from the Go Paddling website which didn't show anything about a physical one!

[@christrower]

@@nickcowley oh I could have sworn I saw one in the video - perhaps you printed it out. Thank you

[@kmay4963]

Did same thing couple times back in my youth. Nice treck. Hope river wasn't too pooy for you.

[@matttipper8525]

This video has been really helpful while planning my own trip. Has the ban on launching from Glasbury been lifted now or did you just chance it?

[@nickcowley]

I'm glad people are finding this useful for planning their own trips! Because we went with Kenny's taxi, we launched a bit further upstream where he has an agreement. I believe the Glas-y-Bont Common launch area is controlled by the council, which allows launching between 1000 and 1600. But I don't know if this has changed, sorry, would be interested to find out!

[@keaneeastwood197]

as someone whos never kayaked but wants to start, how far away is a trip like this?

[@nickcowley]

I had a years experience prior to this trip. When we did our length of the Thames trip a year before this I had only been in a kayak a handful of times too. Just need a healthy respect for the water and build as you go!
