Check out the photos from the Club's SUP session at Paddington Basin. Thanks to Jeremy Price for organising. Despite some initial wobbles [and swims] everyone enjoyed a standing tour beyond Little Venice, negotiating boats, revellers, geese, swans & seasonal duckweed!
See the standings after the first four races in the Series - Holly Rees-Lay and Martin Watkins currently top the Senior categories, with Beth Ireland, Jasmine Uth, Titus Clark and Logan Duncan leading their respective Junior categories - well done to everyone!
Not only was the thermometer hovering around 30C but England was about to play Sweden in the World Cup, so a big round of applause to all the racers. Congratulations go to the winners of the different classes:
