Hey cheater, a quick 10km row would warm me up initially, but, you cool done when dead
Get a bit tired driving 10km

believe it or not 10 ks isn't very far even for an old and feeble Cheater - it's good practice for those longer days fishing or if you have to move quick to get in
there are a few guys now doing fitness training and the odd paddle challenge/marathon - that helps a lot with bigger paddle days

Nothing new there, 40km was a bit of a novelty though.

That’s what I use as well bear, my last kayak was a wet ride and the lovigs kept me dry which made fishing the winter days much more enjoyable. especially when packing up you can take the dry pants off (I wear trackies underneath), put your shoes on and your as dry as you were when you left home. I wear them in any temperature other than high heat days with a pair of croc type shoes over them, i add or remove layers I wear underneath to adjust for the temp. They should serve you well, as long as you look after them

these seem to be better than the version 1 - I had a set of the first Lovigs and they were not dry ( probably still ok on the PA ) but all of my fishing kayaks have been a wet ride -- a mate bought the V2 and has been out a few times now and stayed dry
dont forget to get some water shoes or dive booties ( probably 2 - 3 sizes up to fit over them )

I got mine from ebay - worn them 3 times in the last 2 weeks, they're unbelievable - I was very very sceptical about them but I vouch for these. They were the lowest cost/reasonably made, available qucikly from an Aussie seller that I could find.
These are the ones I got :
DexShell Waterproof Overcalf Sock
SKU: Size: Large
Total: AU $44.95
Seller: dairyessentials(152)
I have a pair of these as well. Tried some others and found they were not so waterproof.
