XLVI Deneb's Captain's Log
17th June 2019
Dear Cygnets,
I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend.
Good Races from the CYG 4+ (Anna, Tom, Eric, Rupert, Ashley) and the CYG 1x (Piguet) in Barnes Mortlake this Saturday - both crews lost against the winners of their respective events, but offered a good race. We can say that we brought luck to the opposition 😉 ... Unfortunately there are no shortcuts in this sport, we know what we need to do to improve so let's keep up the good work.
After a nice recovery session in small boats on Sunday we can look forward to Richmond Regatta
Please update your availability in https://www.fitclub.me, so we can plan the best racing combos. If you have any problems with fitclub please let me know.
