I've been paddling for about 4 years now and in that time have lined up my favourite paddling spots.
I have also started my own business specializing in wireless Internet hotspots - RedButton (www.redbutton.co.za) - and being connected to the Internet has become important to me. Ideally I would want to go to the club house outside of rush hour (to save time), do some work online, go for a paddle, do some work online & drink a coke, have a beer, then head home after rush hour. Problem is none of my favourite paddling spots have hotspots. I could get iBurst, Sentech or 3G but don't want to fork out R2000+ when I could be using one of our hotspots at next to nothing. So, the plan is to get my favourite places connected with hotspots, then share the love by giving all paddlers in the Discovery Men's Health Series free vouchers in October. Time to give something back to the paddling community (and of course shamelessly promote my company).
Haven't been paddling much lately, doing about one a week, without that one paddle I would probably have had a bout of road rage by now as stress levels are high. Time to hit the ocean, no matter what happens there is no excuse, life is too short. As a related side watched Million Dollar Baby the other night, what a tear jerker (even for a hard paddling man like myself)!
