It is indeed the Paddlesports version. Good to hear that an accomplished veteran finds it useful. It kicked my butt this morning.

Received and installed a new addition to the pain cave. Takes about 90 seconds to install or remove. I am fortunate to have a great relationship with the gym owner, so I wont even have to transport it. HR monitor also showed up today, so feeling almost professional... 😄 The test run was a wake...

Yes, it is available in IXP. At least, I know of one dealer (Happy Paddlin') who has one on order. It also has the double asterisks on the price sheet indicating that it is also available in Blacklite HD. Which is what I am betting will be the most popular layup for this boat.

Lol, my heart dropped when I saw the title of this thread. I literally just placed an order for a new solo this week and that seems to be how things go. Fortunately, this is a hull type in which I have no current interest. 😄

Crowded is a relative spectrum, and the BWCA has pieces that are all over that spectrum. The PMAs are almost untraveled. The big entry lakes may have 30+ groups on them. The layout of entry points that makes the area so easy to access make it, well, easy to access. Find an area that takes at...

More civilization and more people. Not a belittlement, but what it is, more developed portages, pit toilets, fire grates, steady traffic, and thousands of works of incredibly granular data for trip planning. And a lot of cell service. FWIW, a lot of videos I see out of Algonquin look similar to...

Great looking scenery!

This is good info to have. I have been running into a similar problem and believed it was some form issue causing the imbalanced fatigue. While my form is definitely a work in progress, I am glad to hear that there might just be some muscle adaptation happening alongside.

That looks like a great trip. Thank you for sharing!

Yessir, that is one of the three reasons I bought the erg. The MR340 can be a big mind game, and I want to be as mentally resilient as possible coming out of hard water season.

Great thread idea, Alan. I have just started training for the 2027 MR340. Depending on how that goes, I may become more involved in canoe racing. Looking forward to seeing some info! Do workouts on a paddle erg count? I have one on order to train through the winter.

Unfamiliar with the rotisserie chicken story? 😄 https://www.canoetripping.net/threads/reservoir-manicouagan-qc-aug-sep-2025.130388/#post-180002

Looks like a wild ride.

And time period covered. I would say the Nile would be a heavy contender. Modern era, the Mississippi has certainly claimed a lot of lives.

Yeah, these specs look great! If the shear is as spec'd, and not off by 2" like a certain Canadian company, it will hopefully be a great northern river tripper. Thanks for tagging me!

My son and I drove through the area yesterday, and I thought of this thread. It is phenomenal scenery! It is higher on my list of want-tos now.

I look forward to seeing this progress!

I look forward to following this build!

The videos are insane. The scour line is over two hundred feet high in some places.

Well, I haven't ever tried a BA pad... Sounds like I dont want to... 😁 They make good stuff for bug guys too, a shame. I love my BA chair.
