mr340 river race. update no.3
Dang. Can't forget about the racers. Was going to take pictures of some of the entrants during last nite's pre-race safety meeting and at Kaw Point when folks where staging their boats but got too busy talking to take very many. Here's one. Bryan Hopkins. Columbia, MO. Bryan is definitely in the mix to take the men's solo with his new Huki surf ski. Bryan's got the right attitude, is trained up, and knows the river like no one else.
Others to look for are Carter Johnson, Jeff Weueste (sp?), and off course the Dark Horse Paddler, Joe Mann. Probably somebody else I don't know about who could be near the front. The winner will the one who sleeps the less. You won't be able to sleep and win this race. Not this year.
