I advise you to run this section of the river before race day to judge it for yourself. I would point you to the FAQ and video here: <br /><br /><a href="http://rivannaregatta.blogspot.com/2012/04/answers-to-frequently-asked-questions.html" rel="nofollow">http://rivannaregatta.blogspot.com/2012/04/answers-to-frequently-asked-questions.html</a><br /><br />and also point you to a YouTube video of this section of the river here:<br /><a href="https://youtu.be/syzix1WGju4" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/syzix1WGju4</a>Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07617143123488857916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852157657155783930.post-28426910029151157932015-04-14T17:19:16.764-07:002015-04-14T17:19:16.764-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07617143123488857916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852157657155783930.post-6554823744745609472015-04-14T14:11:16.239-07:002015-04-14T14:11:16.239-07:00My husband and I are thinking about signing up for...My husband and I are thinking about signing up for the race... Both in solo 14' kayaks. We are from the Lake Erie area and have yet to kayak on a river. We have been in this area 2 years and arent familiar with the rivers. Are there obstacles or anything else we would need to worry about on the Rivanna? For not ever kayaking on a river do you think we would be ok? We are used to Lake waves and have also been on the ocean so we are not novice, but far from expert....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733380579687168722noreply@blogger.com
