Hanneke Jan 2023 10:44pm, 2 Jan 2023 97,429 posts	Quote Pin Hanneke I have history with walking on a ferry for some conquercise zones 😎 it is VERY boring, especially if I'd have to keep moving! I could cycle it onto the ferry, then keep walking and ride it off. Easier than sailing and my shoulder won't get me across in the kayak!!!

Helegant Jan 2023 9:59am, 3 Jan 2023 7,222 posts	Quote Pin Helegant put it on a bouy at swimmers beach in Dover I have had hopes for a while that enough Fetch swimmers might be willing to form a channel swim team... I suspect that a 'relaxed' attitude to crossing on a ferry might be more realistic.
Helegant Jan 2023 10:08am, 3 Jan 2023 7,223 posts	Quote Pin Helegant But for now, moving the baton south from Kempston would be a more realistic target
