Get out and Paddle...
The Menai Challenge is an informal and self-timed time-trial aimed to encourage paddlers to challenge their performance, skills and fitness over one of two courses within the Menai Straits.
Below are the results for 2012; results are recorded for each attempt rather than on a paddler basis - the more times you send in the more your name will appear. Submit your time: Here
There is a prize draw at the end of each year for all those who have submitted an entry - irrespective of result.
Give it a go, there are a few scalps out there for the taking!
Please read the Menai Challenge Info Page
