Breakfast on the Neuse River

What do I eat for breakfast when paddling 200 miles down the Neuse River? Check out the Breakfast of Champions.

Nevermind that my head is cut off for most of the video. You’re probably better off not seeing my ugly mug too much!

Paddling the Neuse River Video

Here’s a rough cut of the Down the Neuse River short film. I shot all footage while paddling 200 miles down the Neuse River in 2009. This film will be screened at a Kinston and Oriental locations of the upcoming Neuse Riverkeeper Film Festival. We’ll be having a full screening at the Sweetwater Brewing Company [...]

Neuse River Expedition Photos

Here’s a sample of some of the 700 photos I took while paddling down the Neuse River. With everything being digital these days, it’s waaaaaaaay too easy to get photo-happy, but it beats running out of film. I remember allocating myself one roll a week when I thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2000.

Neuse River Gear Video

Here’s a quick video I took after spending 10 days on the Neuse River. Be on the lookout for full video gear reviews for the Hurricane Kayaks Santee Expedition, Astral Buoyancy V8 PFD, Playtus Clean Stream water filtration system, Sea to Summit drybags and Kitchen Sink, and a few other pieces of my favorite gear. [...]

Neuse River Expedition Day 7 Journal

Windy today, and a little frustating making time to be honest. Just 14 miles into Kinston, then ran errands and piddled for a few hours. 150 down, 50 to go. I’d love to have another month or two out here though.

 Take care, -John
