My Gas Mouth 2 Mouth - 1st
2011-10-24 06:52:45 by Barry Lewin

The weather certainly played ball this year. Driving up to Richards Bay for the start of this year’s Mouth 2 Mouth I had flash back of last year’s flat 45km out and back grind. Only the fluttering trees coming into Alkandstand started to settle my nightmare memories.

Almost missed the start trying to get sunscreen off my hands in the shore break but got away fine in through the small surf. Not always so small. Zululand is known for its big swell. R...

Tribute to Dedication - Hank McGregor World Champion
2011-10-24 06:04:50 by Barry Lewin

I have been lucky enough to have an awesome training group to paddle with in Durban that is run by Hank McGregor. It’s awesome to push yourself in such a great training environment with guys like the Van De Walt Brother consistently pulling the bunch and Hank a guiding force to the group.
 

Hank works harder than anyone else in the group and not missed one session over the last 6 months. His dedication is unrivalled to anythi...

2011-10-11 07:08:34 by Barry Lewin

This happened at the multisport series yesterday to one of my team mates from Team Jeep, Evan Van De Spuy. Classic footage from a gopro on the bike behind him. Must watch:

The internet is an amazing place. This thing hit a million views in under 12h and it's climbing, wow, not that viral!

After the multisport race at Albert Falls Dam on the weekend we had a little get together to celebrate 10 years of Team Jeep. From young to old the team came out. Big thanks to Max, Clint, Bex, Dimitra and Steve on a great 10 years and here is to another 10.

I have been a member of Team Jeep for 7 years now and am very proud of what the team represents and will always wear the Jeep Apparel logo close to my heart. Thanks for the support!

Time Freight Multisport Series - Race 3 - Altra
2011-10-11 05:57:30 by Barry Lewin

After a massive 9 hour drive back to Durban straight after the second day of the Fish and getting to bed at 2am I was really wondering how I was going to wake up at 6am rather than get through 52km of multisport madness.



Still half asleep I unpacked all the toys (my word you need lots of kit) into the bike and boat transition and smashed the second cup of coffee. If I had a back pack it would have been full of courage but in this case full of ignorance.

Fish 2011 - Day 2 Tripping
2011-10-06 16:36:53 by Barry Lewin

Our first full day at the fish was spent the way it should be, on the river. The top section of the river was closed due to some work being done on the dam so we hit saltpans and then gauging weir to the finish. Check out this video of me shooting saltpans at quite a lot level.

Really looking forward to some bigger stuff like double trubble, keiths and cradock tomorrow!

Fish 2011 - Road Trip Video
2011-10-05 11:30:01 by Barry Lewin

Sitting on the banks of the fish, listening to nothing but the masses of water gushing down this amazing river and I realise why I love this place/race so much. It is truly South African in every way.

From the people to the vibe to the river, everything about the fish represents a piece of our awesome country. It has got to be my favourite event of the year and undoubtedly the best canoe race of in ...
