About these Questions
When we launched CC.org in 2001,
concrete canoeing was mostly pursued and publicized in the United States. We
added these trivia questions throughout the site to perk the interest of our
readers worldwide. As our site matured and the sport of concrete canoeing
grew, it became increasingly difficult to keep up with recent developments,
let alone work on trivia.
