My wife's friend called and asked if we wanted to come over and use their stand up paddleboards around a local lake, so we headed over after work to her place, put the boards the water and then cruised around the lake for about 45 minutes. Perfect temp and time of day. Then we got to chat with her on her waterfront patio for almost an hour catching up on things. A nice ending to a hectic day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groupw Posted July 1, 2020 Share #5 Posted July 1, 2020 6 on the commute. 27 on the group ride. Ride finished just before the storm front came in that is supposed to knock the humidity down some. Wasn’t feeling real zippy last night. Carried over to this morning. Staying home today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd buy two kayaks (or a double) before I'd buy SUPs. Nice to use for free, but not really top of my water options. 2 minutes ago, bikeman564™ said: It's hot here, it would feel nice How stable are they? Pretty stable and I had no problem getting up and down, but you definitely feel left-right wakes from even the small boats on the lake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A city 5 miles south of me has several canals w/ homes. I see people using them there, which is no wake. Probably great location for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get a chance, it is worth an hour or so of time just noodling around. My feet start to get sore/uncomfortable standing in one position for much longer, so I found 45 min to be perfect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisL Posted July 1, 2020 Share #13 Posted July 1, 2020 Rode 3 miles to complete my goal & walked jack a couple of miles. Not sure if I want to keep the streak going too much longer but I do have a ride planned for today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted July 1, 2020 Share #14 Posted July 1, 2020 Just the 11 miles going back and forth to work. I was hoping to do some hill climbs on the way home but as I was late leaving (I am off the rest of the week so was getting stuff done) I just came home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
