Darren Bush has been in, on, or around water for most of his life, despite growing up in the California sagebrush. Captivated first by a girl from Wisconsin, then by Wisconsin, he moved to Madison a few months after his wedding reception. Darren started working at Rutabaga in 1990 as a weekend warrior while crunching numbers as a statistician for the State of Wisconsin, but traded his desk job for business casual (sandals and shorts). 30 years later, Darren's the owner and Chief Paddling Evangelist of Rutabaga Paddlesports.

I get asked a lot of questions at the in-person Canoecopia, and a few of the staff thought it would be cool if I did a Q&A. So I said I would. I have no idea what questions I will get, but I look at this as a bunch of folks sitting around a campfire except instead of a campfire there's a screen. Favorite gear? Yeah, I can tell you what
I like, but I'd rather know what you like. Favorite places to go? I wanna hear from you! If I could go on a trip with six people who would they be? How does my wife put up with the fact she can't put a car in the garage?
Anyway, nothing's off the table. We'll just have a nice chat.
