Welcome to First and Third and our coverage of the 2023 Lent Bumps, which will take place from 7-11 March.

Note that this year each women's division (for W3 and higher) will be racing after the men's division of the same rank, rather than before as in previous years, so if you are racing then be sure to check your division times.

Messages from the towpath will appear below, and you can find the latest Bumps charts on our results page.

Up to six First and Third crews will be racing, depending on results in the Getting-On Race.

Division times (these are race start times - marshalling times are earlier):

      Tue  Wed  Thu  Fri  Sat
W4/M4 1400 1400 1400 - 1240
M3 1440 1440 - 1320 1320

Welcome to First and Third and our coverage of the 2022 May Bumps, which will take place from 15-18 June.

Note that this year each women's division will be racing after the men's division of the same rank, rather than before as in previous years, so if you are racing then be sure to check your division times.

Due to COVID-19, May Bumps last took place 3 years ago in 2019, though a side-by-side June Eights' Regatta was held by CUCBC in lieu of the 2021 Mays.
(Lent Bumps took place in 2020 and 2022, missing just 2021.)

Welcome to First and Third and our coverage of the 2022 Lent Bumps, which will take place from 1-5 March.

The 2020 Mays and the 2021 Lents and Mays were cancelled due to COVID-19, though a side-by-side June Eights' Regatta was held by CUCBC in lieu of the 2021 Mays.
Many of the competitors will therefore be participating in Bumps for the first time.
