Sad to hear of the passing of Italian Rowing legend Guiseppe Moioli winner of the four’s gold in London 1948 Olympics - he was 98 and a Moto Guzzi club member, shown here with club mate Andrea Panizza - silver in Paris

Congratulations to Hampton School Boat Club for some pretty sensational performances at Notts City Regatta, especially to the 2nd 8 who went 5:53 in their heat! Don’t know if that’s close to a record time but it’s quick!

martin cross Fascinating. Such a great and important interview to learn what make a great rower tick, and also for those that might have heard his name but not known the man (yet bought his iconic sculling rack design).

I just finished meeting with one of our amazing international students who is graduating and was reflecting on their experience here. And then open this. What a horrible, horrendous thing to do—I hope it can be stopped quickly.
