About Joe:

My name is Joe Gerard, I am a husband and father in Duluth, MN. I learned to paddle canoes from my dad as a kid in the Twin Cities, MN. I spent some of my teenage years canoe racing in Minnesota but did not keep with the sport. Over the last 5 years I have regained an interest in adventurous paddling and this will be my first attempt at recording a fastest known paddle route.
