Rock River paddle from Beloit to Riverside Park, Saturday, June 17, 2023.
We will meet at the launch site at 4th St (Route 213), Beloit, WI in the back parking lot of the Beloit Bicycle Company, just north of the Rock River at 9:45 am.
For a shorter trip, if there is interest, we can run a second shuttle on the other side of the river to stop at Macktown FP.
It is about a 6.5 to Macktown and 13 mile trip to Riverside Park.
The car shuttle will leave at 10:15. This should allow us to be on the river at 10:45.
We will stop for lunch at the Rockton Dam that we have to portage around.
The long term weather forecast calls for 50% change of rain, high 80°F (we all know that could change).
