The 21-mile crossing of the English Channel is the
open-water peak for challengers such as Ron Collins. They call it the Everest of open-water swimming. "It
doesn't matter how many times you have swam around Manhattan or
across Tampa Bay," Ron Collins said a
few days before he would attempt to add his name to the record book.
"When it comes to long-distance swims, there is only one that matters
and that is the English Channel."

Hey Ron, I wanted to take a moment to let you know about my newest web adventure. After many bleary eyed hours scouring the web for high quality drumming education content (and becoming frustrated at the lack of consistent quality), I've found and assembled what I feel is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in drums and drumming. At the RhythmResource you'll find some of the highest quality drumming lessons (of all kinds: drumset, djembe, conga, tabla, bata...), interesting articles, incredible performance videos and much more. The best part is that all of it is completely free. Enjoy and spread the word!
Hope you're doing great. Have an excellent summer!
