Right, the time for logistics/organisation is almost at an end and soon we will be able to focus purely on the rowing side of things. I say almost because this weekend is the final big push.
We'll be picking up our boat on Sunday afternoon from Putney Town RC along with a couple of spares seats and runners; loading it up onto the trailer and transporting the whole thing up to Lechlade on Sunday evening. There is talk of a few beers in Lechlade on Sunday night in order to galvanise our collective spirit so no doubt by the time we come to setting off at 8am Monday morning, we'll be raring to go!!
The plan is to get to the Trout at Tadpole Bridge by lunch on the first day and Bablock Hythe by the evening, approximately 23 miles downstream from Lechlade.
The enthusiasm and excitement that we all have now in anticipation of next week will undoubtedly have disappeared by the end of the first day, but right now...we can't wait!!!
