Tuesday Notes & Fines

[Andrew Farquharson]

Dear all,

 

The results of Lent Bumps 2026 so far can be found here. The notes and fines for Tuesday can be found below, and here.

Those going out in this morning fog are reminded they must have lights on as long as it remains foggy.

 

Notes from the Umpires

• Welcome back and thank you for a successful first day of racing and here are some reminders:

• Concessions must be a clear raise of the hand. Keep your hand nice and high, hold it as high above your head as possible.

• The finishes for the O4/W4 division are as follows: bottom finish is the railings and top finish is the railway bridge. Crews 1-9 in the W4 division are racing until the railway bridge, crew 10 gets the choice and crews 11-12 are racing until the railings. All crews in the O4 division are racing until the railings.

• Handheld filming at any time is unacceptable. Cameras mounted to bikes, people and boats are ok.

• Churchill W2 - excellent steering around first post with bumped out crews - commendation
• Churchill W3 - handheld filming - £75
