I hear on the grapevine that there are still a couple of boats free for this Saturday's race if anyone is interested.
For those of you not in the know, this is a fantastic event that originally started in the 1920s. It starts from behind the Lakeside Hotel from where you have to row over Windermere before running up Gummers How.
For those not wanting to compete, it is a great spectator's event as no matter how good a runner someone is, their skill doesn't always transfer to rowing. The starts of both the team and individual race are normally chaos.
The organiser's details are on the FRA fixture list page.
