The Club's Results

Mich Term 2019

Autumn Head
Sat 12th October
2,600m head race upstream on the River Cam organised by Rob Roy Boat Club
Near the start of Michaelmas term this is an early barometer of a crew's speed for Fairbairns or more a test of the captain's organisation in getting a decent boat out so soon after term starts. Also, an opportunity to try out a IV in preparation for Uni IVs.

Cambridge Winter Head
Sat 16th November
A timed head race over 2500m, from the Motorway bridge to the Penny Ferry pub.
