Dear all,
The results of today's racing are available here: http://www.cucbc.org/mays NOTES FROM THE UMPIRES * Another cox has been disqualified and a penalty bump awarded against their crew for rowing into a stationary boat at race pace. This is an unacceptably dangerous thing to do - do not row into stationary crews. * Coxes: After you bump, clear the river quickly. Look behind for approaching crews, decide which way to go and go for it. * When racing, do not get tunnel vision - keep an eye out for obstructions, crews clearing, etc. * Row home sensibly - maintain normal navigation and do not attempt to swap incompetent rowers into the cox's seat. * Crews are permitted one standing start ONLY at the Plough. Standing starts are not permitted at any other time. * Bank parties: when not moving, please step off the towpath and keep it clear - both after your crews have bumped out and on the way down to the start. * Captains: please make sure your club knows that supporters should not run alongside the race. This is very dangerous and will be fined as an excessive bank party. * Tomorrow the towpath will be very busy, particularly for the later divisions. Cyclists must watch where they are going and spectators should be on the grass, not the path. * Bank parties are strictly limited to 4. This includes boatmen, college masters, alumni, VIPs, and anyone else. Crews with excessive bank parties may not be allowed to start the race.
