If you enjoy kayaking out of Jericho and would like to increase your paddling opportunities, this group may be for you. This Paddling Out of Jericho Whats App group is useful for short notice paddles and gives participants plenty of flexibility.

PLEASE NOTE: This is not a SKABC Whats App group. It is simply for anyone who enjoys kayaking in English Bay and wants to launch at Jericho or nearby Locarno Beach.

IMPORTANT: All participants are responsible for their own safety on and off the water.

TO JOIN: Reply to this forum with your name and mobile number or text this info, starting with the word “Jericho”, to Andrea Kovits at 604-379-8833. Once you’re a member, you can add others to this group.

Looking forward to seeing you on the water!

Hi Susan & Richard,

 

Could you add me to your list for the Crabbing Paddle on June 15.

 

Thanks Bob Maher

[Susan Jensen]

If you’ve been waiting to join in on the crabbing paddle and dinner make sure to sign up! Details are in the event listing. It’s an easy paddle at White Rock Beach and we’ll have a feast in the afternoon.

Hi Zoran, I didn’t see your post until late Friday night. In the future you could try to contact the trip leader directly (and copy in the webmaster) to see if joining late can be arranged without too much duplicate work for the volunteers involved. Hope to see you at the pizza dinner.

Hi, just wanted to thank you all for the advice again. Really appreciated! I shall do some tire homework this weekend… haha. Helen

Hello,

I wanted to register for the Spring Fling: Cates Park to Bedwell Bay (2B) but it’s after 10 pm so it seems I’m late.

Regards,

Zoran

Wheeleez Kayak Carts do sell their tires seperate but you would have to know the size of tire and axil specifications.

You could also contact MEC., Western Canoe & Kayak, Coast out door and Skyview

Home Depot also has small tires.

Would Golf Cart Tires work?

We are introducing new parking time limits in certain lots to address parking lot congestion during peak times.

Hi everyone, our annual kickoff to the paddling season is this weekend!

If you’d like to go on a paddle Saturday, register by 10pm tonight. This gives our Trip Leaders time for last minute correspondence and to make their float plans.

Choices for destinations Saturday range from a morning launch for an all day outing in Indian Arm to an afternoon Shoreline paddle. See the Event Calendar for details.

After paddling we’ll all meet up by 5pm at the Cates Park picnic shelter for pizza provided by the club. Feel free to bring a potluck item to add to the meal if you’d like.  The dinner is rain or shine — sign up for the dinner by Friday.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

I agree with Cliff. I’ve had problems with leaks and flats on inflatable tires. Yes,  you can fix them with tire levers and a bicycle repair kit, but are you going to carry those items plus an air pump on a trip? You can buy new tubes easily enough, but the tires are flimsy and a few oysters will destroy them. That said, shame upon me, for I’m still using inflatable tires, so I am not practicing what I preach!

You might have some luck at Canadian Tire. Believe it or not they sell tries.
