Bumps, Blades, and Bowballs- Cambridge Boatie Chat

What's faster than, a quad or an eight?

Octuples are fastest and best

so today we went out in a four... with no rudder. shortest outing ever.

There was a Caius boat out in a shiny new Vespoli this morning. Was that not you?

My lycra hasn't arrived yet . I feel guilty rowing in a senior (well, technically, at least...) boat in jogging bottoms and tshirts.

huh? there was a caius boat out in a term-old vespoli...

I doubt any of them have won a side-by-side ARA regatta?

Once you start town rowing, the term 'novice' does change a bit! I had 6 tub outings before I even set foot in an eight...

Nor have quite a lot of senior college crews. I'm not sure what point that's supposed to make?

It's alright, i've been doing that for about a year, until i eventually caved in at the end of last term... Like someone said, as long as nothing catches in anything else, it doesn't really matter

I just did a 2k test, I want to vomit and curl up and cry myself to death. But I did set a PB!

I have a 2k in 40 minutes... urgh... *crawls to the corner to curl up and hope it goes away*

ditto.

I'd be more keen for stash in rowing if it didn't cost so much money, and wasn't quite so unattractive when on me... I don't have the legs for rowing stash... But mainly it's expensive...
