Bumped by Fitzwilliam II
Bumped by Fitzwilliam II
This was always going to be a tough one, sandwiched between two fast second boats.
Despite this M4 gritted their teeth to put in a committed fight as Fitz got 3 whistles coming under the bridge and the bump swiftly followed around the outflow.

Bumped by Caius III
Well, we put in a solid effort and did one of our best races yet. We managed to hold off Caius III for a much longer distance than we had the other boats we were bumped by, but sadly not for long enough not to get spoons. Our strategy to row over was a good one, but Caius really emptied their tanks early in the race and were able to catch us up for the bump a way after the motorway bridge. Had we held them off a little longer, they probably would have blown up and fallen behind...but such is life.
