For most of the race we kept calm, but then it all went a bit Carry On. Never mind, on Friday we'll get them back with a Megastar Toyota-esque bunnyhopping overbump.

Although the results seem bad, we in fact allowed ourselves to be bumped today as a tactical decision. Having realised that our original goal of taking the overall headship arms only might be just out of reach, we carefully considered our options.
Viewing the chart further down, it can be seen that Hughes Hall didn't make a double overbump, overbump or even a bump today, and instead had to row the entire course without colliding with any terrified crews and ripping open their faces to devour their souls.
This will make them angry, so angry that if we had remained 6th in the division we would have almost certainly been triple overbumped by them tomorrow - instead this fate will befall Churchill, and we will cower triumphantly at the edge of the river as Hughes pass by.

Using the state of my lycra as an indicator, I'm pretty happy with today. It smells bad enough that I must have had a reasonable workout, but not as bad as if I'd been significantly scared of the crew behind us.
Good job guys - when we needed to push today we did, and we've held onto the M3 headship.
