New Swim Route – Belleandback


A smaller showing this morning but still an enthusiastic bunch when you see the distance these idiots swam. Not in the same league as Party of one Ian S. but still a solid effort.

Dave, Dave U., Bevan, Chris, and Rob headed to a spot 100 metres from the pointy end of the island. I have no idea where that spot is (obviously), but when I measured it on Google Maps, 100m is actually parallel with the post – go figure.

From there we swam to Woody. Bevan made the call to swim to Belle next – this is where we parted company as I loathe swimming over near the baths.

The remaining idiots then swam from Belle back to a sleek motor cruiser moored on one of the pink cones – “Hard Work” was the boat’s name.

Check out the map and marvel at the distance covered.

The water was still a little fresh at 16C – down .5 from yesterday.


About Dave

Dave has been an idiot for longer than he can remember. However, his Real Idiot status was confirmed about 20 years ago when Linda and Bevan coaxed him out to the post. Developer and administrator of this website as well as reporter, photographer, and chief spell-checker. Thankfully, other idiots contribute to the site to keep it interesting...
