On a gloriously sunny Saturday 2nd May, three of Sidney\\’s eights got their Easter term off to a strong start in the 2.6km Head of the Cam. Racing in the third division of the day, M1, M2 and W1 all put in strong performances relative to the crews around them in Bumps, setting the tone for what will hopefully be another good term for the Club. The event also saw Sidney\\’s first win of the term, with W1 picking up tankards as the fastest crew from the 2nd Mays division – a great start to what will hopefully be a successful racing career for the new VIII, Mark Wainwright.
The results were:
M1 – 09:56
18th= overall, 2nd in Men\\’s Mays 2nd Division VIIIs
M2 – 10:28
25th overall, 7th in Men\\’s Mays Lower Divisions VIIIs
W1 – 11:02
10th overall (women\\’s), 1st in Women\\’s Mays 2nd Division VIIIs
Well done for everyone who took part on a solid start to the term!
