Burley Griffin Canoe Club

Flat Water in Canberra has been very successful over the last few years. Canberra caters for paddlers of all levels, from beginner to state and national levels. Regular competitions are held state wide, which gives paddlers the chance to improve and gain experience.

The discipline of flatwater incorporates time trials and training. Additionally, members may be interested in touring, or annual events. Each year Burley Griffin Canoe Club hosts the Burley Griffin Bash, and the 24 Hour Relay Challenge.

Opportunities exist to paddle competitively, or to race in a social manner through the Mothers' Day Mayhem, and the Fathers' Day Paddle.

Please read the descriptions below, and e-mail info@bgcc.org.au if you would like to get involved.

Time Trials:
Time trials are held on the Molonglo River at Molonglo Reach, off Morshead
Drive, near Duntroon Military College.

During the period of the Eastern Summer Daylight Savings Time, 10 km time trials are held each Wednesday evening with the first boats off at 6:00 p.m. All paddlers are welcome to enter the time trials to paddle either the full 10 km, or 5 km, or even 3 or 8 km - depending on your ability! A new point-score system will be held over this summer, with points for overall placings, handicap placings, percentage improvements in 10 km time and new this season - finishing closest to your nominated finishing time!

After the paddle, everyone is welcome to stay for a barbecue meal of sausages and salad, with cake and chat and perhaps coffee or tea and talk.
