I talk about rowing far too much. I also love motorbikes.

Only just realised that there are only 2 World Rowing Cup Regattas this season rather than the usual 3 (Varese and Lucerne)

Obviously those 19th Century Eton #rowing types were a bit dodgy 🤣 (taken from Viceroys: The Creation of the British” by Christopher Lee).

Very impressive results from St Paul’s School at Quintin ahead of the River, 2nd overall by just 1 second. Is there any other team sport where a junior team is so competitive against the seniors? #rowing #rudern #aviron www.quintinhead.org/wp-content/u...

Interesting British Rowing, among others, proposing doing away with men's events at international level. WR proposing just a tweak of the current rule on gender eligibility #rowing

Enjoying reading this history of Oxford Brookes Boat Club, but it’s a bit annoying that former Henley Royal Regatta Chairman, Peter Coni’s name is misspelled throughout the book

Congratulations to Helen Glover, the LW2X, W4X and PR2 Mix2X all of whom have received recognition in the New Year’s Honours list, but surprised, and disappointed that British Rowing’s other Olympic gold medalists (M8 & PR3 Mix 4+) miss out.

Is there a crisis brewing for US Rowing as two major organisations, the Scholastic Rowing Association of America (SRAA) and the Intercollegiate Rowing Association (IRA) both announce they will not be renewing USR membership, nor require competing clubs/athletes to be members #rowing

Interesting proposals for the future World Championship #rowing events, reduction in lightweight events, adding mixed and also reducing para events

One of the things I find really strange when watching #NFL via #NFLgamepass is all the adverts for prescription drugs, such a weird concept for anyone outside of the USA.

Real shame that the Fours Bead has been cancelled, never an easy decision for the organisers but not surprising given the atrocious weather forecast #rowing

Looks like Brookes have withdrawn all their men’s crews from this weekend’s Fours Head…linked to this leaked message perhaps?

Very sad to hear of the passing of the legendary Penny Chuter….the first woman to head up a Senior international British mens team. She was also a former Director of International Rowing for GB.
