Our Masters spent the weekend in Angers, France competing at this 15km head race. Although Saturday’s racing was cancelled due to a storm, the women resorted to relay ergs to sort out the winner and Wallingford won! I’m sure they didn’t want to travel all the way to France just to erg, and luckily racing on Sunday went ahead, in mixed crews.
The organisers were incredibly helpful and arranged it so that all nine of our women and our four men got a chance to row, four of them jumping into a scratch crew with some local French oarsmen. All returning home with a trophy and memories of good Angevin hospitality.
