Our Burn Series includes two types of events, our signature Cardiff Burn Event (10km on foot, 30km by bike and 3km by Kayak) and our Mini Burn Events (5km on foot, 10km by bike and 1km by kayak). To add to the excitement, each event will usually include a ‘special stage’ which is only revealed days before the event!

Our Mini Burn Events are ideal for families, giving father and son or mother and daughter (or any combination of this!) the rare opportunity to race together in a Multisport event. It is also ideal for sports newcommers and corporate sports clubs. Juniors must race with a responsible adult.

Due to the longer distances of our signature Cardiff Burn Event, it is an event for those with a little experience and a reasonable level of fitness. It is definitely the next step for you if you are a regular Mini Burner! For Cardiff Burn, alongside our regular pairs category, we are also opening up a solo/own kayak category in 2012 for those who wish to make the event a more personal effort and who would like to upgrade from the sit-on-tops we provide. For this category, you will need to have your 2 star kayak qualification as a minimum. For further information on this please visit Canoe Wales or Canoe England. Kayaks can be your own or hired. The solo/own category is only available for over 18′s as Juniors must race with a responsible adult in the pairs category.

We are pleased to announce that our partnership with Cancer Research Wales will continue through 2012 and we hope to continue to provide them with suitable opportunities for fund-raising for the great work that they do in helping to prevent Cancer. If you are planning to take part in one of our events then why not download a sponsorship form here and contribute to this worthwhile cause.
