Okayyy, Here's the race report for the Whitstable "very open" event. The "must be there to get the training in before the NATIONALS" event. Yup there it was. All the hotshots simple oozing testostrogen and other illegal hormones, ready to do battle as they square-up and face-down the opposition ready for Beer, next weekend.

Yes, it is just one week before the Nationals, so some of you might be a little hesitant about the shallow waters of the outer Thames estuary, but Whitstable always extends a warm welcome with well run racing, and it will be the Nationals venue for 2013. The Notice of Race is available in MS Word and Adobe PDF flavours.
For those wanting more Whitstable, Mark Barnes has offered to run a training session the weekend before- see the forum for details
