We didn't win, for only the second time, but it was our best performance for a while (ignoring the first two minutes).
It's good to have some competition in Invitational, although somewhat strange that it came from an Oxford college - I suspect that Cantabs would have been well clear had they raced. We should probably do a bit more training for next year.
Thanks to Iain and FaT for the use of the Empacher (and Pedro and Bryn), Rebecca for coxing us and Jon for organising everything.
Anyone keen for the HoRR?

I don't call going over at 35 a gentlemen's agreement.
