Club River Trip Report - Sunday 14-December-2025

Trip Leader - Dave Paynter

A group of 14 SVCC club members enjoyed a great day on the river Usk. We all met for a hearty breakfast in Brecon before running the stretch from Aberbran back to Brecon. It was at a good level, at 6.2 on the Trallong gauge. Billed as an 'introductory white water' trip it was good to welcome Patrick and Milo to moving water, and to see Katy and Rose paddling so well.

We stopped at some good practice spots along the way, allowing for plenty of ferry gliding and breaking in and out practice. We has a couple of swims while  learning about eddy lines but that's all part of the fun. Thanks all for a great day out, look forward to the next.
