The 1999 HORR
The 1999 HoRR. Watching Leander go off before we even get our boat wet! They aren't small Karen, they're just far away!

1999 HORR race in progress
The 1999 HoRR. Hard at it, just after Hammersmith Bridge. Nearly home and we're glad we came... honest!

Prior to boating 1999 HORR
The 1999 HoRR. How lucky were we all with the conditions that day? It was just like a mill pond. The Tideway? Surely not?

Boats overtaking
The 1999 HoRR. It's all action as three crews push for the best of the stream, just after Hammersmith. "Ten on the legs then boys!"

2000 HORR overtaking
The 2000 HoRR and this year, it's Ann Booker pushing us all the way. "How much do we want it?"

2000 HORR overtaken
The 2000 HoRR and Lea RC go through just at Hammersmith. We caught 'em up again though...
