 More pictures of the big day http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/101768746336259882865/ULtrialsfeb10#ULBC's trials races on Friday the 19th was blessed with a mild and sunny day which showed the club off in the best possible light. The hard work put in by supporters and athletes has moved the club back to some of its former grandeur.
The Womens group was once again struck by illness with Lottie Howard-Merrill and Kate Hewitt being pulled out on the morning of the race.

Crew W4x: Amy Broadbent, Beci Humpreys, Orla Hayes, Ellen O'Mahoney
