Sparkle - thank you for your thoughts. I am pretty confident in thinking that small rapid rivers/just rivers in general, will be my preference. I am concerned that a plain old lake would bore me. I have never been a boater type person, but I love to mountain bike on narrow trails in the woods. I have a vision of kayaking on a river/ narrow waterways will somehow have a similar feel. But, what the hell do I know?
I will do some research of the available water sources in my area that allow kayaking and then go from there.
Oiler - thanks for the information on the roof rack. I do have a rack plus cross bars as I mountain bike. If I get to the point where I decide to buy a kayak I will DEFINITELY be returning to the thread/seek you out by PM for recommendations.
Blaze - is it better to store a kayak flat on the floor or hanging?
Dominique - you are lucky you are such a short distance to where you want to row (is it "row" or what is it one says here?)
We probably won't be able to begin any kayaking until June, but prepare for lots of questions around that time! Thanks everyone!
