Bishops Stortford Canoe Club were the organisers of this race for fifth time, but never has there been a turnout like the one witnessed this year. In the end there were 216 entries, proving just what a popular venue this race is. Many people who might otherwise have been racing were instead involved in marshalling the event, but nevertheless there were enough racing to bring the club a respectable 4th place overall.
The best result of the day was a silver medal for Toby, which also earned him a promotion to Div 7. The final results are now available - additional promotions from the doubles race to Div 7 for Anne & Nathan have been confirmed.
